Roll Down chords
Start Jamming...
Sweet lighters of Plymouth, we're saying goodbye.
Roll down!
[Eb] We'll rock you and roll you again, by and by.
Walk around me, Ray Boys, and roll down.
And we will [Abm] roll!
[Eb] Walk around me, Ray Boys, and roll down.
Knockers away and the sirens are on the sound.
Roll down!
We're hung for to take you half way round the world.
Walk around me, Ray Boys, and roll down.
And we will [Ab] roll [Bb]
down.
Walk [Db] around me, Ray Boys, and roll down.
Gang of bears, gang, the seas are on high.
[Eb] [Bb] Roll down!
[N] For sickly transplants, oh, wish thine can die.
Walk [Eb] around me, Ray Boys, and roll down.
And we will [Ab] roll [Eb] [Bb] down.
[Ebm]
Walk around me, Ray Boys, and roll [N] down.
When the coast of Africa enter our pair.
Roll down!
For nervous transplants, oh, tremble in fear.
Walk around me, Ray Boys, and [Eb] roll down.
And we will roll [Bb] down.
Walk around me, [Eb] Ray Boys, and roll down.
When we set sail for old Dingalan Siong.
[Bbm] Roll down!
[Eb] For stranded transplants, we'll say I'm no more.
Walk [Bbm] around me, Ray Boys, [Eb] and roll down.
And we will [Abm] roll
[Bb] [Db] down.
Walk around me, Ray Boys, and roll down.
Then sweet ladies of Plymouth will pay all your rent.
[Eb] Roll down!
Don't hove in no more, till our money's all spent.
Walk around me, Ray Boys, and roll down.
And we will roll
[Bb] down.
Walk around me, Ray Boys, and [Eb] roll down.
