Let It Roar Like A Flood

D Well, the high rollin' cats they tell me G D That there are some ways you must bend G D I just cannot lend my hands, my friends E A To what I don’t believe in G D The time is too brief to sell it so cheap G D And it's all I have got to spend G D The life I will lead is the one that is free G A D And I won't go back again G So let it roar like the flood D It just is in my blood G D And I will make my stand right here G Let it roar like the flood D It just is in my blood G A D And I will make my stand quite clear D Now, I ain’t no ruler or master G D And I ain't no jack of spades G D And I ain't no card for anyone E A Who would call me by a different name G D And I cannot be your tomboy G D And I can't be no one's god G D And I cannot be your servant G A D And I will not be their thug G So let it roar like the flood D It just is in my blood G D And I will make my stand quite clear G Let them raise up the winds D Until I am pinned G A D I will make my stand right here D Now, all my wooden friends G D Of all my days gone by G D How come you do seem to turn like you do E A How come you're like the tide G D And when the seas get a little rough G D You go in heading for the shore G D Well, don't mind me, this ain't no third degree G A D Just fight until you can’t do no more G But let it roar like the flood D It just is in my blood G D And I will make my stand quite clear G There’s a time for to run D And there's a time for to stay G A D And, yes, there’s a time for to vanquish fear D Well, on all sides the sea is closing G People say they're getting ready for the D Long haul G Well, I might be wrong, it's sure getting D Pretty cold E A But I know there's some ways I won’t fall G D I won't fall in by the department G D And I won't fall for any party line G I don't know what it means, but I'm telling D You it seems G A D That compromise is on the rise G Ah, just let it roar like the flood D 'Cause it is in my blood G D And I will make my stand quite clear G Let them raise up the winds D Until I am pinned G A D I will make my stand right here D Well, I see they have made me a junkie G D Or maybe they will coax me down G D And I will sink myself into a Cadillac E A And I'll just make my way uptown G D And I'm going to a resort in the Bahamas G D And I'm making that Woodstock scene G I'm just doing research D Although sometimes it hurts G A D It's all in the way you dream G So let it roar like the flood D It is in my blood G D And I will make my stand quite clear G There's a time for to run D And there's a time for to stay G A D And, yes, there's a time for to vanquish fear D Last year there was a people's army G D Yeah, and this year there's a people's war G D Among all them downs they've been passing around E A And people hold out their hands for more G D And all the crap on the tables G D And all those words that fall G I have been meaning to split D 'Cause I just don't seem to fit G A D So much seems off the wall G Just let it roar like the flood D It is in my blood G D And I will make my stand quite clear G Let them raise up the winds D Until I am pinned G A D I will make my stand right here D I have been through several seasons G D And all the reasons, they seem to change G D I don't trust no man or woman at hand E A Except the ones I can really feel G D And those who would speak of madmen G D And those who would put me down G D And those who preach I just cannot reach G A D Their words are so far from the ground G Just let it roar like the flood D It is in my blood G D And I will make my stand quite clear G There's a time for to run D And there's a time for to stay G A D And there's a time for to vanquish fear, yeah
