        verse:
   B
I left my home one day
         E
For the sake of better pay
        B                              F#
In a foreign land 12 centurys back in time
           B
Where the sun keeps burning down
               E
On the hole drilled in the ground
         B          F#             B          E
And I dream of the girl I left behind


        verse:
               B
Well I signed on the dotted line
                E
And I thought in a few years time
         B                                   F#   E
I'd be home and we could start a brand new life
            B
But everything went wrong
               E
And I just don't know how long
                   B               F#          B
They will make me stay to pay for my crime


        chorus:
               E
And I wish I was
 B             E
Rollin' home, rollin' home
 B                           F#
Home to the place I long to be
E            B             E       B
Oh, oh, oh, rollin' home, rollin' home
  B               F#               B
There's someone waiting there for me

        verse:
           B
There's a law that rules this land
     E
That I just didn't understand
   B                             F#    E
I didn't know that I was doing wrong
            B
But they don't see to care
         E
And they all do it when they're over there
     B                 F#               B
But here your face is justice of their God


        chorus:
       E
And I wish I was
 B             E
Rollin' home, rollin' home
 B                           F#
Home to the place I long to be
E            B             E      B
Oh, oh, oh, rollin' home, rollin home
  B               F#               B
There's someone waiting there for me

        verse:
B
All the money that I've saved
        E
To pay for better days
              B                           F#  E
Just can't make up how I miss you so
                    B
There's no consolation prize
                E
Oh, but when I close my eyes
            B             F#          B
I'm dreamin' of you in our new home


        chorus:
