"Rollin' By" by Robert Earl Keen
From: Moondog 96 <skywise@io.com>
This song uses a capo on 3rd fret and all chords are written as if 3rd
fret was open.
The opening uses a variation(i.e. -- these chords, but i don't want to
write out the tab for it) of these chords(in this order): D C D C
D C G D
D C G D
It's a busted old town on the plains of West Texas.
D C G D
The drugstore's closed down, and the river runs dry.
D C G D
The semis roll through like stainless steel stallions
D C G
Goin' hard, goin' fast, goin' wild
D C G
Rollin' hard, rollin' fast, rollin' by.
(after this the song uses the same progression, even for the solos -- which
i won't transcribe here either.)
And the mission still stands at the edge of the plateau.
A stone marks the graves where the old cowboys lie.
Asleep in a time, in a town just a youngster
Goin' hard, goin' fast, goin' wild
Rollin' hard, rollin' fast, rollin' by.
And the drive-in don't play no Friday night pictures.
No big silver screen to light up the sky.
Gone are the days of post-war-time lovers
Goin' hard, goin' fast, goin' wild
Rollin' hard, rollin' fast, rollin' by.
