_ _ 66 [A] and 7, they fought the [D] Congo War, with their fingers [A] on their triggers, _
[E] needling war, _ [F#] days and [A] nights they battled,
the land took [D] to their knees, they killed to [A] earn their living,
[E] and the help of the [F#] Congo leaves.
_ _ [D] Rolling [A] the Thompson gun,
[E] _ _ [F#] _ _ [D] Rolling [A] the Thompson [E] gun,
_ [F#] _ _ _ His combat's [A] not decided,
let alone in [D] Amherst,
but of all the [A] Thompson gunners,
Rolling [E] was the best,
[F#] should see like [A] he decided,
the only [D] rule in death,
that's how the best [A] travel in,
[E] Lord [F#] Rolling's Head. _ _
[A] Rolling was [E] like a headless [D] Thompson gunner,
[F#] _ _
[A] knows all his readiness,
[E] _ _ you [F#m] can still see his head was bright,
[D] stalking through [F#] the night,
[A] when the muzzle [E] flash, the Rolling's [F#] Thompson gun,
when [A] the muzzle flash, [E] the Rolling's [D] Thompson gun, _ _
[F#] _ _ _ _ Rolling switched [A] to cunning,
from a man who'd done [D] him in,
he'd found him in [A] one basket,
in a bar room in [E] Hinton,
_ [F#] Rolling, you [A] missed Thompson gun,
he didn't say [D] a word,
but he blew that [A] boy's body,
[E] made your old [F#] man's burn,
_ _ _ [A] Rolling, [E] headless [D] Thompson gunner,
[F#m] _ [A] Rolling, _
[E] headless [D] Thompson gunner,
[F#m] _ _ [A] Rolling, [E] headless [D] Thompson gunner,
[F#] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ Thompson [A] gunner,
still walking through [D] the night,
_ _ now it's ten [A] years later,
but he still keeps up [E] the fight,
[F#] on Ireland, [A] in Lebanon,
in Palestine, [D] in Berkeley, _ _
_ I rehearsed, heard the burst,
of Rolling's Thompson [E] gun,
[F#] and bought it. _ _ _ _
