[Bb]
[Gm] [Bb]
We are [N] all born free, but forever live in chains, and we battle to existence on and on.
We'll take whatever comes to be while keeping hopeful melody, and we'll cruise through the darkness until the warmth of dawn.
So roll, roll, you bastards, you never can tell, through water like glass, above a variety howl.
So roll, oh, holler, come give [Gm] her all you can, for the seas she will best us, we'll never see the land.
We carry on the burden and we hide our grimace well, for the day will come for us to mutiny.
But as long as we survive our hope and pride, they can't deprive, and we'll carry on our melody to singing harmony.
So roll, roll, you bastards, you never can tell, over water [A] like glass, above a variety howl.
So roll, oh, holler, [Eb] come give her all you can, for the seas she [Bb] will best us, we'll never see the land.

[Eb] So roll, oh, holler, [Bb] come give her all [F] you can, [Bb] for the seas she will best us, [Eb] we'll never [Bb] see the land.
We are wracked from the hardships, [Eb] exhausted [Bb] by the years, [Eb] we can still escape this barren [Bb] misery.
But [Eb] even with our shackled wrists, [Bb] we can fight our [F] way through this, [Bb] and we'll power all aboard this [Eb] ship to total [Bb] liberty.
So roll, oh, holler, you bastards, [Eb] you never [Bb] can tell, the ocean, the tempest, [F] the storm, and the stormy howl.
[Eb] So roll, oh, holler, [Bb] till bloodied [F] on the high, [Bb] for the seas she will best us, we'll never see the land.
So roll, oh, holler, you bastards, you never can tell, the ocean, the tempest, [F] the storm, and the stormy howl.
