[Intro 1]
[G]

[Verse 1]
Left your job in [G]the city
Working for the man every night and day

Halt a lot of pain in New Orleans
But I never saw the great sun of the city

[Verse 4]
Until I hit, I never got to New Orleans
[D]Make way, people chatting
[C]Proud Mary, keep burning
But I'm [G]rolling, rolling,
rolling for a river queen

[Verse 5]
Rolling, rolling, rolling for a river queen
[G]
You come down by the river
Bet you're gonna find
some people who live
You don't have to worry,
but you don't have to have money

[Verse 6]
People on a river are happy to give
[D]Make way, people chatting
[Csus4]Proud Mary, keep bur[C]ning
'Cause I'm [G]rolling, rolling,
rolling for a river queen
Rolling, rolling,
rolling for a river queen

[Verse 7]
You don't need no money
You don't need no money
People on the river...
