The Way We Roll

Written by Jeff Frankenstein/Peter Furler/Stuart Garrard/Steve Taylor

	  		(power chords are played) 
B                          D 
Rewind the clock, we were, ridin’ a wave 
B                    D 
Of Oz rock, we were, but barely of age 
B                        D                       A                   
To take charge, or pack our guitars for the long flight 
         G 
Should we write 
B                          D 
No cash or plan, we were, criss-crossing the states 
B                    D 
In some van, we were c-c-cooking our beans 
B                                   D 
On the block while the motor was hot 
                    A                        G 
Something’s got to blow, let’s get to the show 

A 
Give us half an inch, 
A 
We’ll be tackin’on a mile 
A 
Give us a half stage, 
A 
We’ll start up a rampage 

B                G 
Put on your back pack 
A                   F#m 
Throw out your road map, 
B          G 
God’ll use anything 
A              F#m 
Check it and see 
B                  G       A            F#m 
He’s given us more than we ever could ask for 
G                                   Em 
That’s the way we roll, ‘cause we’ve been set free 
G                                   Em 
That’s the way we roll, ‘cause we’ve been set free 

B                             D 
Reset the stage, we were, out rattling the cage 
B                         
With each show, we were 
    D 
Out hawkin’ them shirts 
B 
For more lights 
                       D 
To shine hit the brights 
                 A 
And we saw your faces 
               G 
And we got new basses 
B 
Good in the lane, we were 
D 
Spinning our drums 
B 
Like a tire 
         D 
We were, blowing up the domes 
B                               D 
From a pile, it worked for awhile 
           A 
It just didn’t rise 
    G 
We apologize 


A 
All we got to give is a God-given drive 
A 
It keeps us movin’ 
A 
It keeps on groovin’ 

B                G 
Put on your back pack 
A                   F#m 
Throw out your road map, 
B          G 
God’ll use anything 
A              F#m 
Check it and see 
B                  G       A            F#m 
He’s given us more than we ever could ask for 
G                                   Em 
That’s the way we roll, ‘cause we’ve been set free 
G                                   Em 
That’s the way we roll, ‘cause we’ve been set free 
.... 
G 
Starting up 
      B 
We’ll lighten up the load at the 
G 
Startin’ gate, we’ll 
B                        G 
Lighten up the load to a partin’ date 
      B 
We’ll light up the road 
       G 
C’mon, kiss your mamma goodbye 
F#m 
We got to fly 

--(silent guitar)-- 

Put on your back pack

He’s givin’ us more than we ever could ask for 

That’s the way you roll when you’ve been set free

B                G 
Put on your back pack 
A                   F#m 
Throw out your road map, 
B          G 
God’ll use anything 
A              F#m 
Check it and see 
B                  G       A            F#m 
He’s given us more than we ever could ask for 
G                                   Em 
That’s the way we roll, ‘cause we’ve been set free 
G                                   Em 
That’s the way we roll, ‘cause we’ve been set free 
G                                   Em 
That’s the way we roll cause we’ve been set free 
G                                   Em             B 
That’s the way we roll cause we’ve been set free
