[Verse 1]
SCmisyphus peered iBbnto the mist
A stone's throw from the precipEbice, paused
Did he jCmump or did he fall as he gaFzed into the maw of the morning mBbist?
Did he rEbaise both fists and say, "To hCmell with this" and justF let the rock rBboll?
[Chorus]
Cm Let it rFoll, let it crBbash down lEbow
There's a hAbouse down there but I lDost it long agGmo G Cm
Let it rFoll, let it crBbash down lEbow
See my hAbouse down there but I loDst it long agGmo

So taFke my hand, we'll do more than stBband
Take my hand, we'll clCaim this land
TaCmke my hand, and weF'll let the rock rBboll
[Chorus]
