The Hobbit - Rollin Down The Hole

Glenn Yarbrough


Tom: G

G            C     D
Heave ho! Splash plump!
D
Rollin' down the hole!
G           C    D
Heave ho! Bang bump!
D                          G
Roll-roll-rollin' down the hole!


[Verse 1]
G                      C        G
Down the dark, swift stream you go
G                  C    D
Back to lands you once did know!
D            C             
Where the forest wide and dim
C                  D       G
Stoops in shadow grey and grim.


[Chorus]
G            C     D
Heave ho! Splash plump!
D
Rollin' down the hole!
G           C    D
Heave ho! Bang bump!
D                            G
Roll-roll-rollin' down the hole!


[Verse 2]
G                       C        G
Down the dark, swift stream you go
G                  C    D
Back to lands you once did know!
D             C         
Float beyond the world of trees
C                 D        G
Out into the whispering breeze.


[Chorus]
G            C     D
Heave ho! Splash plump!
D
Rollin' down the hole!
G           C    D
Heave ho! Bang bump!
 D
Roll-roll-roll-roll-roll-roll
D                                          G
Roll-roll-roll-roll-roll-rollin' down the hole!
