Let Your Troubles Roll By

[A]Love endures, it clings [D]away
[A]When asked to leave, it begs to [D]stay
[A]Like the perfect song, at imperfect [D]times
[A]It's the way the chord's struck with the [D]rhymes
[D]So let your troubles roll by.

[A]He knows he can help himself
[D]He can tell by a look at the books on his shelf
[A]And someone somewhere loses her son before
[D]Her own sunset is said and done.
[A]And she dreams of sunflowers bentover
[D]Frozen in the snow and thinks Colorado
[A]Then plays her life back in slow-motion
[D]To keep in touch with that raw emotion
[A]In the night, crushed empty can
[D]Olive Oil's waiting for her man
[A]To come in from the fight that will change their life
[D]For good this time

When all of your [A]tears dry, let your troubles roll [D]by
When all of your [A]tears dry, let your troubles roll [D]by
When all of your [A]tears dry, let your troubles roll [D]by, let your troubles roll
by. [A]       [D]

[A]Like New Year's Eve, tonight's underway
[D]but tomorrow you'll wake up afraid of the day,
[A]Cause underneath the scars of your broken dreams
[D]An undone war still wages and stings
[A]You fear the year will blow like a breeze through a
[D]Rainbow you swear it's there but you can't grab a
[A]Hold, so you sit and cry and wonder [D]why, why?

to Refrain

[A]So many cities and windows and lives and
[D]through each one there's a soul that strives to survive
[A]So pay no mind, my sorrow's fine
[D]The day is alive and that's why i cry
[A]It's the New Year's Toast grab your list to conspire,
[D]The last snake hissed as he was thrown in the fire
[A]You've come far and though you're far from the end
[D]You don't mind where you are cause you know where you've been
[A]Like a culture vulture sprawled out on the floor
[D]like a dead devil sailor washed up on the shore
[A]With nothing of note but the old captain's coat
[D]And a burning boat you sank with your salty

[A]tears dry, let your troubles roll [D]by
When all of your your [A]tears dry,let your troubles roll [D]by
When all of your your [A]tears dry,let your troubles roll [D]by, let your troubles

roll by.
