C                               F                                  C                                    F 
Took a look down a westbound road, Right away I made my choice. 
C                           F                                  C                                     F G 
Headed out to my big two-wheeler, I was tired of my own voice 
G                              C                                     F                              C G G 
Took a bead on the northern plains and just rolled that power on 

.C                              F                                          C                                F 
Twelve hours out of Mackinaw City, Stopped in a bar to have a brew 
C                            F                                   C                                         F    G 
Met a girl, and we had a few drinks, and I told her what I'd decided to do 
G                                             C                                            F                      C         G 
She looked out the window a long, long moment, Then she looked into my eyes. 
G 
She didn't have to say a thing, I knew what she was thinkin' 


C      F                                     C                                  F 
Roll, roll me away, Won't you roll me away tonight? 
C                      F                                           C                                                 F       G 
I too am lost, I feel double-crossed, And I'm sick of what's wrong and what's right. 
                          C                                           F                            C                   G 
We never even said a word, We just walked out and got on that bike, And we rolled, 
             G 
And we rolled clean out of sight

Dm                             G              Dm                  G              Am                       Em 
We rolled across the high plains, Deep into the mountains.  Felt so good to me 
Am                 G  Dm                               G           Dm                     G 
Finally feelin' free. Somewhere along a high road the air began to turn cold 
Am                                  Em       Am              G 
She said she missed her home. I headed on alone. Oh!

C                            F                             C                                  F C                            F 
Stood alone on a mountain top, Starin' out at the Great Divide      I could go east, I could go 
                   C                     F         G                  C                                          F 
west It was all up to me to decide. Just then I saw a young hawk flyin', And my soul began to 
C                       G 
rise, And pretty soon, my heart was singin' 

 
C      F                                   C                             F           C 
Roll, roll me away, I'm gonna roll me away tonight. 
                                 F                               C                                     F         G 
Gotta keep rollin', gotta keep ridin', Keep searchin' till I find what's right 
                   C                                         F                       C          G 
And as the sunset faded I spoke to the faintest first starlight, 
                  G                               G 
And I said, "Next time, Next time we'll get it right."
