Capo 1st fret

Standard (EADGBE)

 (Original Key: )

Intro

Rolling the ball, rolling the ball,

Rolling the ball, to me.

Rolling the ball, rolling the ball,

Rolling the ball, to me.

Verse 1

They arrived at an incon-venient time;

I was hiding in a room in my mind.

They made me look at my-self; I saw it well.

I'd shut the people out of my life.

Verse 2

So now I take the oppor-tunities;

Wonderful teachers, ready to teach me.

I must work on my mind, for now I realise;

Every-one of us, has a Heaven inside.

Chorus 1

Them heavy people hit me in a soft spot,

Them heavy people, help me.

Them heavy people hit me in a soft spot.

Bridge 1

Rolling the ball, rolling the ball,

Rolling the ball, to me.

Rolling the ball, rolling the ball,

Rolling the ball, to me.

Verse 3

They open doorways, that I thought were shut for good.

They read me Gurdjieff and Jesu.

They build up my body; break me e-motionally.

It's nearly killing me; but what a lovely feeling!

Verse 4

I love the whirling of the dervishes,

I love the beauty or rare innocence.

You don't need no crystal ball;

Don't fall for a magic wand.

We humans got it all; we perform the miracles.

Chorus 2

Them heavy people hit me in a soft spot,

Them heavy people, help me.

Them heavy people hit me in a soft spot.

Coda

Rolling the, rolling the, rolling the, rolling the...

Them heavy people hit me in a soft spot,

Them heavy people, help me.

Them heavy people hit me in a soft spot.

Rolling the, rolling the, rolling the, rolling the...

Them heavy people hit me in a soft spot,

Them heavy people, help me.

Them heavy people hit me in a soft spot.
