[B] [C#] [F#]
Green Douglas fir where the waters [C#] cut through
Downer Wild Mountains and [F#] Canyon she flew
Canadian Northwest [B] to the ocean so blue
[C#] It's roll on Columbia, [F#] roll on
Roll on [Fm] Columbia, roll on
[C#] Roll on [F#] Columbia, roll on
Your power is turning [B] our darkness to dawn
[C#] Roll on Columbia, [F#] roll on
Other great rivers [C#] add power to you
Yakima, Snake [F#] and the Clicky Tattoo
Sandy, [B] Willamette and Hood River too
[C#] Roll on [F#] Columbia, roll on
It's there on your banks that we fought [C#] many a fight
[G#] Sheridan's [F#] boys and the blockhouse that night
They saw us in [B] death but never in [C#] flight
Roll on Columbia, [F#] roll on
Roll on [C#] Columbia, roll on
Roll on [F#] Columbia, roll on
Your power is [B] turning our darkness to [F#m] dawn
Roll [C#] on [F#] Columbia, roll on
Our loved ones we lost there at [G#m] Coles Little [C#] Store
We were by fireball and rifle a [F#] dozen or more
We won with a [B] merry and soldier's sheep [C#] oar
Roll on Columbia, [F#] roll on
Remember the trial when the battle [G#m] was [C#] won
The wild Indian warrior, [F#]
we hung every Indian [B] with smoke in his gun
[C#] Roll on Columbia, [F#] roll on
Year after year we had P [C#].J. trials
Hidin' the rapids of [F#] Cascades and Dalles
Indians rest peaceful on [B] Mammaloo [C#] Sound
Roll on Columbia, [F#] roll on
Roll [C#] on Columbia, roll on
Roll on Columbia, [F#] roll on
Your power is turning [B] our darkness to dawn
[C#] Roll on Columbia, [F#] roll on
At Bonneyville now [C#] there is ships and a lot
Waters have risen [F#] and drowned at the rocks
Ship floors are pretty [B] with steam in the [C#] dons
Roll on Columbia, [F#] roll on
On up the river [C#] at Grand Coulee Dam
Mightiest thing ever built by a [F#] man
To run the great factories [B] for a whole number of fans
[C#m] Roll on Columbia, [F#] roll on
Roll on [C#] Columbia, roll on
Roll on [F#] Columbia, roll on
Your power is turning [B] darkness to dawn [C#] Roll on
