[Verse 1]
     A
When I was a boy on my daddys knee
           E             A
Thats when he said these words to me
A
Said listen to what I'm gonna tell you son
            E          D      A
And you can help the world go round
A
Dont climb no mountain cause you might slip
      E                        A
And I know you'll drown if you sail in ships
A
Heres a guitar all shiny and red
       E         D   A
And it makes a magic sound

[Chorus]
D           A
Roll, roll, let it roll
                  E          A
Let it flood down to your soul
D            A
Let it talk, let it swing
                 E      A  N.C.
Play that music, let it ring

[Verse 2]
            A
Now you can pick Buddy Holly
                             E                    A
Chuck Berry too, and you can do anything that you wanna do
A
Won't cause no harm, and never started no wars
       E           D       A
And it sounds like father rain
A
They can call it county, they can call it rock
              E                    A
But I'll play this supper till the day I drop
A
If you got any troubles just tune on in
            E     D        A
Cause it'll ease away your pain

[Chorus]
D           A
Roll, roll, let it roll
                  E       A
Let it flood down to your soul
D            A
Let it talk, let it swing
                 E      A  N.C.  A
Play that music, let it ring

[Verse 3]
A
Some folks get them college degrees
              E
And then they open up an office
         A
And they charge big fees
A
I never was good for much at all
          E        D     A
Except for  playin kinda loud
A
I could feel it in my feet, hear it in my head
       E                          A
I even played that music when I'm laying in bed
                                            E           D    A
It never did get me anywhere at all, but it makes me kinda proud

[Out-Chorus]
D           A
Roll, roll, let it roll
                  E       A
Let it flood down to your soul
D            A
Let it talk, let it swing
                 E      A
Play that music, let it ring
            D
Come on and roll, roll, let it roll
A                 E       A
Let it flood down to your soul
D                   A
Let it talk, let it swing
                 E      A N.C.  A
Play that music, let it ring
