Roll On Columbia Chords by Woody Guthrie

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [B] _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ [F] _
_ Green Douglas fir where the waters [Db] cut through
Downerwild [Bb] mountains and [F] canyons she flew
Canadian [B] Northwest to the ocean so [Db] blue
[C] It's roll on [F] Columbia, roll on
Roll on [Db] Columbia, roll [C] on
Roll on Columbia, [Db] roll on
Your power is [Bb] turning our darkness to [C] dawn
Roll on Columbia, [F] roll on
_ Other great [C] rivers and towers to view
Yakima, Snake [F] and the clicky tattoo _
_ Sandy, [Bb] Willamette and Hood River [C] too
Roll on [F] Columbia, roll on
It's there on your banks that [Em] we fought many a [C] fight
[G] Sheridan's [F] boys and the blockhouse that night
They saw us in death [Bb] but never in flight
[C] Roll on Columbia, [F] roll on
_ Roll on [C] Columbia, roll on
Roll on [F] Columbia, roll on
Your power is turning [Bb] our darkness to dawn
[C] Roll on Columbia, [F] roll on
Our loved ones we lost there at cold [C] Little Store
We were by fireball and rifle a dozen [F] or more
We won by the Mary [Bb] and soldier she bore
[C] Roll on Columbia, [F] roll on _
_ Remember the trial when the [C] battle was won
The wild Indian warriors to the tall [F] timber run
We hung every Indian [Bb] with smoke in his [C] gun
Roll on Columbia, [F] roll on
Year after year we [C] had peace yet in trials
Fighting the rapids and [F] cascades and _ downs
The Indians rest peaceful on [Bb] Mammaloo Sound
[C] Roll on Columbia, [F] roll on
Roll on [C] Columbia, roll on
Roll on Columbia, [F] roll on
Your power is [Bb] turning our darkness to [C] dawn
Roll on [F] Columbia, roll on
At Bonneville now there is ships [C] in the locks
Rotters have [F] risen and drowned at the rocks
Shiploads of [Bb] plenty will steam in the [C] docks
Roll on [F] Columbia, roll on
On up the river [C] at Grand Coulee Dam
Mightiest thing ever [F] built by a man
You'll run the great factories [Bb] for a whole of those fans
[F] Roll [C] on Columbia, [F] roll on
_ Roll on [C] Columbia, roll on
Roll on Columbia, [F] roll on
Your power is turning [Bb] our darkness to [C] dawn
Roll on Columbia, roll on _
