[Verse 1]
Fmaj7                               C
Yeah I say rollin' wheels and blackjack deals

G                       C
Are all the same to me

Fmaj7                               C
Yeah traded away everything I made

G                       C
And headed out to Santa Fe

Fmaj7                               C
Laid my money down, the filly came around

Am           C                  Fmaj7
She's six lengths in the lead

Fmaj7                               C
Yeah grabbed that money and 1 kissed my honey

G                               C
And we headed down to New Orleans
[Chorus]
Fmaj7                           C           G
Won't you roll on down the road just let it roll

Fmaj7                           C           G
Won't you roll on down the road, let it roll

Fmaj7                               C
Hell I've never stopped to ask myself

Am              C               Fmaj7
If the getting's worth the goal

Fmaj7                       C
Guess I gotta gambler guess I gotta rambler

G                       C
Lord, I gotta gypsy soul
[Verse 2]
Fmaj7                               C
Yeah well I gave thanks as they lowered the planks

G                       C
On the decks of the Delta Queen

Fmaj7                               C
And I got in a game with a man named James

G                       C
And I figured I'd pick him clean

Fmaj7                               C
When the bet went down and the deal came around

Am              C                       Fmaj7
Worst deal I'd ever seen

Fmaj7                               C
I always thought my ace in the hole

G                       C
Must've been in Tennessee
[Chorus]
Fmaj7                           C           G
Won't you roll on down the road just let it roll

Fmaj7                           C           G
Won't you roll on down the road, let it roll

Fmaj7                               C
Hell I've never stopped to ask myself

Am              C               Fmaj7
If the getting's worth the goal

Fmaj7                       C
Guess I gotta gambler guess I gotta rambler

G                       C
Lord, I gotta gypsy soul

Must've been in music row

Fmaj7                               C
They tell me, boys, gonna make a name

G                       C
That's the only place to go

Fmaj7                               C
If you don't mind, I'm unkind

Am              C               Fmaj7
Wanna do things my own way

Fmaj7                       C
Yeah you gamble and you lose, sing a three chord blues

G                       C
Hell it's all the same
[Chorus]
Fmaj7                           C           G
Won't you roll on down the road just let it roll
