Roll The Bones (Lyrics)
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 sell your belongings
All your clever drawings try to make a dollar
From the grave
Yeah and sell your belongings
All them clever drawings try to make a dollar
From the grave
But who's to blame
Yeah so it goes
Yeah so it goes
Them city boys in country clothes
Oh let's take a chance and roll the bones
Go crash that car
Unplug your phone
Yeah try to forget all them enemies and debts
They'll just chase you round and give you sour dreams
Try to forget all them enemies and debts
So they'll just chase you around and give you sour dreams
Oh, so it seems
Oh, so it seems
Oh, so it seems
Oh so it seems
So it seems
Yeah so struggle all you like
Yeah put up the good fight
They say that someday everybody dies alone
Yeah struggle all you like
Put up the good fight
They say that someday everybody dies alone
Oh but I say who really knows
But hey who knows
Yeah hey who knows
Yeah hey who really knows

And suddenly, I'm going through that Shakey Graves Phase again

[@daniellelehman8795]

hahaha I just went through Shakey phase that lasted for 7 months and probably stopped like 2 weeks ago and looks like I'm gonna get back to another Shakey phase 💜🤠💜

[@DaOfficialPeach]

So true tho

[@_inflection3209]

It's a great phase. :)

[@chrisdefronzo8734]

It’s not a phase if it never ends.

[@sammyj2917]

The Roll the Bones album is one of the most cherished and important pieces of music in my life. It has caried me for years from hardship to triumph. So very happy to celebrate its 10 year anniversary!

[@samanthasmith8000]

Same. I'm currently working on a drawing piece of the album cover for when the war came💜 love it

[@myideologywgaf]

honestly I prefer this version over the audiotree version. sentimental value is a hell of a drug.

[@RackBaLLZ]

Never gets old. Though I will say the audio tree live session is by far the best version and performance I've seen by Shakey Graves. I've never seen him live personally though. it would be nice if he made his way over to House of blues Houston or some other small venue in or near Houston, TX.

[@SocietyKilledTheUnicorn]

What about the npr tiny desk performance. Perfect parts and only son are just killer!

[@pointysidedown]

I saw him live in Ottawa Ontario, it's cliche but he is better live than any video

[@3Bud]

This is in the credits on on the new Tiny Tina's Wonderland and I couldn't be more pleased!!

[@s0Itea]

Literally just finished the game and had to look up this song, what a bop!

[@kelseyt4300]

Nothing will compare to the Audiotree version of this song.

[@bigblockbumpside2296]

Agreed

[@baaardmanbt5369]

What about the Spin Session? Voodoo Experience... Roll the Bones/Built to Roam mash up? Too much good in these...

I saw this played at Willie's Fourth of July Picnic. That was my introduction to Shakey Graves.... This is just completely alien.

[@taylorbarone679]

So much talent in shakey it's crazy one if my most favorite artists I cherish his music so much! ✌️💕

[@beefpanda4313]

Played rolled the bones by rush at my dads funeral. This reminds me of that, not in genre but in spirit. And I was sitting in the kitchen drinking while my kids and wife sleep, thinking god him when you posted this. Universe is weirdly weird. Like I before e except after, and except when spelling weird.

[@tweekachu2605]

Feeling honored to be in the first 2000 viewers of this. Small victory but definitely a victory.
