The Rolling Stones -  Let it Rock chords
Start Jamming...
[E] [A]
In the heat of the day down in Fort Worth, Alabama, working on a railroad with a steel [D] trotter's collar.
I've got to get the water, pops a brand new shoe, [A] slide the popsicle on the table with
the heat [E] too.
Sing all over, trying to save the land [A] and the sun, bending and falling when my work
is all done.
[D] [Am]
[Bm] [A] [D] [Am]
[A] In the evening when the sun is hanging low, I'll be up waiting for the westward [D] flow.
Listen, hear the TV bell right on the [A] track.
Lord, and them folks with the bomb on their back.
I think I'm drunk [E] but I'll try [A] to scatter a pack.
I'm scared to take off until two miles out.
[Em] [D] [A]
[E] [A]
Everybody's coming down and scrambling around.
I'm up in the morning [C] trying to see me.
[D] I'm falling for the panic, about to go [A] insane.
Trying to get the workers out of the way of the [E] train.
Engine in the road, the wheels are low [A] and low.
Can't stop the train, he has to let it roll on.
Roll on.
