Roll With It Baby Chords
Roll With It Baby by Steve Winwood is a more advanced guitar song played in the key of B. It uses the chords B, D, Em, F, G, C, Bb, Dm and Ab. Use the transpose and diagram tools on this page to change the key, see each shape, or simplify the chords.
As with my other tabs, I tried to keep a sense of rhythm. When it comes to double-digit frets, I did notation
like hexadecimal: A = 10th fret, B = 11th fret, and so on. There are some interesting little runs the bassist
does in this song and I only touched a few of them. Most of them are toward the end. I don't guarantee
accuracy; I've been working on this song off and on for years and I found it hard to tab out. I hope it's
useful to you!
