Start Jamming...
The great [A] music of Creedence Clearwater [C] today on American [G] Bandstand.
Mr.
John Fogerty [F] wrote this song, Solomon [D] Berg did it, and Creedence Clearwater did it too.
Proud Mary.
Melt a good job in the city
Waking for the man every night and day
And I never lost a minute of sleep
And worrying about the way things might have been
[A] We will keep on fighting
[Bm] Proud Mary, keep on fighting
[D]
Rolling, rolling, rolling on the river
Seen a lot of plates in Memphis
Pumped a lot of paint down in New Orleans
But I never saw the good side of the city
Till I hitched a ride on a riverboat swing
We [A] will keep on fighting
Proud Mary, [Bm] keep on fighting
Rolling, rolling, rolling on the river

If you come down to the river
Bet you're gonna find some people who live
You don't have to worry
Cause you have no money
People on the river are happy to kill
[A] We will keep on fighting
[Bm] Proud Mary, keep on fighting
[D]
Rolling, rolling, rolling on the river
Proud Mary, [G] the Creedence Clearwater revival.
Swinging from that, the cross-tie [D] walker.
And again, Creedence on Bandstand.
I went [G] down to the station
Just to take a [D] ride
I went down to the station
Just to take [D] a ride
Found [A] myself on a flat car
[G] Just a day's [D] behind
[G] Pulling out from the platform
There was no [D] grandstand
[Dm]
[G] I pulled out from the platform
Nobody [A] raised their hand
[Dm] Now [D] [Dm]
I [A] know, feel the regret
[G] From a [D] runaway train
[F] [D] Train, train, [F] train
[D] [G]

[Am] [C#m] [F#] [G]
[D]
[G] Got no sand in my pocket
No, I ain't [D] tied down
[G] Ain't no sand in my pocket
Down to [D] Tucson town
[A] I'm just a cross-tie walker
Down [G]
to Creedence train run
[F] [D]
[G]
[A] That's the sound of Creedence here on [G#] American Bandstand.
