Chord/Tab song: Roll Away

There's no TABs for anything by this band so I figured I'd submit an easy one that I
to play. Great acoustic song for playing and singing solo or to jam with some other
instruments.

Might not be 100% Accurate but I think it's real close.

ROLL AWAY - BACK DOOR SLAM

Tabbed by: TheDev01dOne

The intro/little pre-verse bit is easier than it sounds. Mostly open strums with and Em
and the harmonic at the 16th fret. Kinda looks like this TABed but just listen to the
and you'll get it.

Standard tuning - Capo 4th fret.

(Inro - Pre-verse riff)

[Em]I've taken walks by the [G]rolling sea
Where the [D]cliffs drop [C]down to the [D]big blue [Em]deep
[Em]I've breathed in the air that rolls [G]over these hills
[D]I breathe it [C]in but [D]I've had my [Em]fill

(Chorus)
I've gotta [Em]roll, [G]roll away
[D]Maybe I'll re[C]turn to this [D]island [Em]some day
[Em]Roll, [G]roll away
[D]Maybe I'll re[C]turn to this [D]island [Em]some day

(Pre-verse riff)

[Em]From the towns to the ports to my [G]thatched hill-top house
I've [D]never felt as [C]safe as [D]I do right [Em]now
But I [Em]know there's a world [G]waiting out there
I'll [D]rush head first [C]to it, on a [D]wing and a [Em]prayer

(Chorus)

(Pre-verse riff)

(Solo thing - See below lyrics..)

(Pre-verse riff)

[Em]I love this place with my [G]breath and my bones
[D]I'll always [C]call this [D]island my [Em]home
But I [Em]know when the day comes to [G]way my farewell
[D]I will re[C]turn with a [D]story to [Em]tell

(Chorus x2)

(Pre-verse riff)

Fade out..

THE SOLO... If you watch some video of him playing it, it's just chords with hammer-ons
pull-offs and bass runs. Easy to just wing it or just play the chords and let someone
do the solo. But the song works fine without the solo so feel free to not play it if you
be bothered..

Anyway what I do for the solo is like this..

Am C Am C (Pre-verse riff once) Am
[Am] [C] [D]
[Em] [G] [D] [C] [D] [Em]
[Em] [G] [D] [C] [D] [Em]
Then proceed to the pre-verse riff and the last verse. Like I said, watch some videos or
to the song to get the feel of the hammer-ons etc and you'll figure them out.

Good luck, hope people enjoy this song as much as me!
