[Verse 1]
[D]If I took a [Em]rollin' wheel
And rolled it ten [G]times [D]round[Faug]
[Dm]Would [D]it travel [Em]far [A]from h[G]ere[Em]
Or would it [C]just [D]go round
Round [G]and Round
[Em][G][Em]

[Verse 2]
[Em]As a young boy I h[G]elped
the [Em]old man
[Am]Workin' in [C]the fields[G][D]
And [G]every[Em]day, we hauled the hay
To the [Am]rollin' [C]of the [G]wheels[D]
[G]'Til [Em]one day the t[G]ractor l[Em]aid
The [Am]old man down t[C]o [G]the ground[D]
The [G]tractor [Em]pitched him into a ditch and
[C]Left a dusty [Em]sound
Of the [Am]wheel that [C]kept spinnin' [Em]round
The [Am]wheel that kept [C]spinnin'
[Em]round
[C][Em][D]

[Verse 3]
[G]Rollin' [Em]wheel, [G]rollin' [Em]on
[C]Takin' us all on our [G]way[D]
[G]Rollin' [Em]wheel, [G]rollin' [Em]on
[C]Takin back all that they [Em]gave
[C]Takin' us all on our [Em]way
[C]Takin' back all that [Em]they save[D]

[Verse 4]
[D]I've nev[G]er knew [Em]my f[G]ather well[Em]
The [C]war called him [Am]too soon[G][D]
[G]Said he [Em]was an o[G]fficer
[Em]Saw some pictu[C]res in my room[Am][G][D]
[G]The letter sai[Em]d he was
re[G]ported [Em]dead
Near [C]the front [Am]lines he'd
been [G]found[D]
[G]A mine blew his [Em]jeep into a
[G]twisted [Em]heep[C]
And I still hear [Em]the sound
[Am]Of the wheel [C]that kept spinnin'
round.
[Em][C][Em][D]

[Verse 5]
[G]Rollin' [Em]wheel, [G]rollin' [Em]on
[C]Takin' us all on [G]our way[D]
[G]Rollin' [Em]wheels, [G]rollin' [Em]on
[C]Takin' us all to [Em]the grave
Tak[C]in' back all that they [Em]save
[C]Takin' us all [Em]on our way
[D]My

[Verse 6]
[G]brother [Em]chased a [G]dream of [Em]wheels
His [C]whole life geared for the [G]race[D]
[G]As soon as he [Em]could, he drove [G]off [Em]for good
His [C]whole life was short,
quick, [Am]and straight[G][D]
He [G]only [Em]lived [G]to spin those [Em]wheels
And [C]make that move [Am]over [G]ground[D]
'Til the [G]steering [Em]failed and
he [G]crashed the [Em]rail
And he [C]laid there still for the [Em]sounds
Of [C]the wheel that kept spinning
round.
[Em][C][Em][D]

[Verse 8]
[G]As for [Em]me, my [G]life's too s[Em]hort
The [C]wheel has carried [G]my far[D]
[G]Around this [Em]world [G]100tim[Em]es
By [C]bus, truck, [Am]train, bike , or [G]car [D](???)
And [G]just like the [Em]rest I roll [G]on to my [Em]death
On a [C]country [Am]road far from town
[G]I s[D]tar[G]e by the wheel
[Em]just as su[G]re as I feel[Em]
