Shakey Graves – Roll The Bones lyrics
[Verse 1]
Yeah, so it goes
Yeah, so it goes
That sweet heirloom
Them abbey stones
Oh, take a chance and roll the bones
Cut off your hair
Unplug your phone

Yeah and sell your belongings
All your clever drawings
Yeah try to make a dollar from the grave
Sell your belongings
All your clever drawings
Try to make a dollar from the grave
Oh, who's to blame

[Verse 2]
Yeah, so it goes
Yeah, so it goes
Them city boys
In country clothes
Oh, take a chance and roll the bones
Go crash your car
Burn down your home

[Bridge]
And try to forget all your enemies and debts
They'll just chase you round and give you sour dreams
Try to forget all them enemies and debts
They'll just chase you round and give you sour dreams
Oh so it seems
So it seems

[Verse 3]
Yeah, so struggle all you like
Yeah, put up the good fight
They say someday everybody dies alone
Yeah, struggle all you like
Yeah, put up the good fight
They say someday everybody dies alone
But hey, who knows
Yeah hey, who knows
Yeah hey, who really knows
