F                    C7
Sometimes you dream, sometimes it seems
C7              C        F  F/E
There's nothing there at all
    Dm                   Am
You just seem older than yesterday
        Bb                          C    [c d e f]
And you're waiting for tomorrow to call

    F                       C7
You draw to the curtain and one thing's for certain
        C7           C      [F  F/E]
You're cozy in your little room
    Dm                         Am
The carpet's all paid for, God bless the TV
    Bb                          C
Let's go shoot a hole in the moon

    [c d e f] F             Dm/F
    Whoa  And Roy Rogers is riding tonight
    Bb                           F  [f e d ]
    Returning to our silver screens
    C          C            F
    Comic book charac- ters never grow old
    Bb                     G/B          C
    Evergreen heroes whose stories were told
            Dm                   Am
    Oh the great sequin cowboy who sings of the plains
        Bb                        G/B      C[ Dm/C] C
    Of roundups and rustlers and home on the ra_______nge
    Dm                Am
    Turn on the T.V., shut out the lights
        Bb        Bb     F             f f e d C  d e f F f e d  C  C7
    Roy Rogers is riding to-ni_____ght

F                      C7
Nine o'clock mornings, five o'clock evenings
    C7        C         
I'd liven the pace if I could
        Dm                       Am
Oh I'd rather have a ham in my sandwich than cheese
        Bb                       C7   C F/D
But complaining wouldn't do any good

C/E F                    C7
Lay back in my armchair, close eyes and think clear
C7         C   F/D   C/E F  C/E
I can hear hoofbeats ahead
Dm                   Am
Roy and Trigger have just hit the hilltop
        Bb                           C
While the wife and the kids are in bed

(Chorus)
