Proud Mary Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D][D]
[D]You know, every now and then I think
you might like to hear [D]something from us
Nice and easy
[D]But there's just one thing, you see
We never ever do noth[D]ing nice and easy
We always do it [D]nice and rough
And we're gonna take
the beginning of this song and do [D]it easy
But then we're gonna do the finish [D]rough
It's the way we do "Proud Mary"
(And we're) [D]rolling, rolling
Rolling on the river

[Verse 1]
Listen to the story now
[D]Left a good job in the city
Working for the man every night and day
[D]And I never lost one minute of sleeping
I was worrying 'bout the way
the things might have been
[A]Big wheel keep on turning
Ooh, the [Bm]Proud keep on [G]burning
And we're [D]rolling (rolling), rolling yeah (rolling)
Rolling on the river (Rolling on the river)

[Verse 2]
[D]Cleaned a lot of plates in Memphis
(And I) pumped a lot of 'tane
down in New Orleans
[D]But I never saw the good side of the city
Until I hitched a ride on the riverboat queen
(You know that) [A]big wheel keep on turning
Ooh, the [Bm]Proud keep on [G]burning
And we're [D]rolling (rolling), rolling yeah (rolling)
Rolling on the river (Rolling on the...)
Say, we're [D]rolling (rolling), rolling (rolling)

[Interlude 1]
Rolling on the river (Rolling on the river)

Oh, I [D]left a good job in the [C]city[G]

Worrying 'bout the way
