[Start]

[Intro]
D7 Gm Cm Gm Cm Gm F Eb
              
Bb Eb Bb Ab Eb Cm
           


[Verse]
                         F   
Sisyphus peered into the mist
  Bb                               Eb    
A stone's throw from the precipice paused
       Cm                 
Did he jump or did he fall
      F                         Bb          
As he gazed into the maw of the morning mist
       Eb                       Cm               
Did he raise both fists and say To hell with this
         F       Bb       
And just let the rock roll


[Chorus]
Cm                    Bb         Eb 
  Let it roll let it crash down low
          Ab                   D7             G7 
There's a house down there but I lost it long ago
G        F           Bb         Eb 
 Let it roll let it crash down low
    Ab                  D7            G         
See my house down there but I lost it  long ago

F Gm F Eb
     


[Chorus]
       Bb                   Ab               Eb   
Well I let the rock roll on down to the town below
         Bb               Ab                 G  
We had a house down there but I lost it long ago
             Cm 
Lost it long ago
F   Bb Cm F       Bb Cm F       Bb  
I'm     letting     it roll away
         Eb                 Ab     
It's got nothing to do with   fate
D7                        G   G7 G
And everything to do with you   
           G7                
I'd rather fail like a mortal
     F                     Bb           
Than flail like a god on a lightning rod
Eb                           
History forgets the moderates
Cm F Bb Eb
      


[Verse]
          Cm                   F           
For those who sit recalcitrant and taciturn
         Bb                      
You know I'd rather turn and burn
     Eb                 Cm   F
Than scale this edifice yeah 
Bb Eb Cm                   
    Where's my accomplice
   F7                              Bb   
So take my hand we'll do more than stand
                   Eb             
Take my hand we'll claim this land
Cm               F                  Bb  
Take my hand and we'll let the rock roll


[Chorus]
Cm        F           Bb         Eb 
  Let it roll let it crash down low
          Ab                     D7           Gm  G7
There's a house down there but I lost it long ago  
Cm        F           Bb         Eb 
  Let it roll let it crash down low
       Ab                     G            Cm  C7
See my house down there but I lost it long ago  
             F  
Lost it long ago
    Eb      F Bb Eb             
I'm letting      it roll away
     Ab                Db       
It's got nothing to do with fate
    D                D7  
And everything to do with
