Verse:
AmD
Sisyphus peered into the mist
GC
A stoneʼs throw from the precipice, paused
AmDG
Did he jump or did he fall as he gazed into the maw of the morning mist?
CAmDG
Did he raise both fists and say, "To hell with this" and just let the rock roll?
Chorus:
AmDGC
Let it roll, let it crash down low
AmB7EmE7Am
Thereʼs a house down there but I lost it long ago
DGC
Let it roll, let it crash down low
AmB7Em
See my house down there but I lost it long ago
EmDAmAmEmDAmAmEmDCCGAmC
Well, I let the rock roll on down to the town below
GAmE7
We had a house down there but I lost it long ago
Am
Lost it long ago

Iʼm letting it roll away
CAm
Itʼs got nothing to do with fate
B7EmE7E7
And everything to do with you
Verse:
AmDG
Iʼd rather fail like a mortal than flail like a god on a lightning rod
CAmDGC
History forgets the moderates
Am
For those who sit
D
Recalcitrant and taciturn
GCAmDGC
You know Iʼd rather turn and burn than scale this edifice, yeah
Am
Whereʼs my accomplice?
DG
So take my hand, weʼll do more than stand
C
Take my hand, weʼll claim this land
AmDG
Take my hand, and weʼll let the rock roll
Chorus:
AmDGC
Let it roll, let it crash down low
