Tom: C#m
E
I walked through Cleveland till my feet were black.
E A E
It only took ten minutes then I was back in this hotel room trying to write this song.
E
I met a little white man, he said he played guitar.
E A E
His wife's in jail and that broke my heart the stories you hear when you'd rather be alone
[Chorus]
A
Roller coastin's what I do for fun.
Am
I buy two seats but I only use one.
E B
The other I keep safe for my old girl.
A
She gets out by labour day,
Am
and when she does, we're going away.
E B
We're gonna ride the rails back to Oklahoma.
A Am E
Back to Oklahoma.
[Verse 2]
E
The Cuyahoga River won't kill you no more.
E
They cleaned it back in '74.
A E
Well, you might get sick but welcome to Ohio.
E
It's the state that makes one the president,
E
where free pete rose is never dead.
A E
In '96, we shared an elevator back in Cinci.
[Chorus]
A
Roller coastin's what I do for fun.
Am
I buy two seats but I only use one.
E B
The other I keep safe for my old girl.
A
She gets out by labour day,
Am
and when she does, we're going away.
E B
We're gonna ride the rails up to Manitoba.
A Am E
Back to Nova Scotia.
