[Verse 1]
D5        G5                                                             F5    C5
Well, she dragged it out forever and my ration's almost never, don't you know?
          G5                                               F5    C5
But every time I hit it and won't you forget it, don't you know?
           G5                                                             F5    C5
She always jumps up in the morning and she kisses me goodnight, don't you know?
          G5
I got the burgeons left and a headache right
          F5   C5         G5     N.C. E5
Don't you know, don't you know?
 
[Chorus]
A5
Looking good, looking fine, looking so pretty
E5               A5
So rotten to the bone
A5
Never been hungry, never been smitten
    E5                A5
But oh, rotten to the bone
  D5                    A5
I bet you find time for looking in the mirror
D5                  A5
Twenty-five times a day
    D5                 A5
You never get tired of looking in the mirror
        B5                     E5
But you always see things in a most peculiar way
A5
Looking fine, looking fine, looking so pretty
E5               A5
So rotten to the bone
 
[Verse 2]
    G5                                                              F5    C5
You didn't have to hurry 'cos she doesn't seem to notice, don't you know?
       G5                                                            F5    C5
If you believe that rubbish then you're really in trouble, don't you know?
   G5                                                             F5    C5
It couldn't be her fault, she never gets it into focus, don't you know?
          G5
Well, her eyes need checking and her bum needs slaps
          F5   C5         G5    N.C. E5
Don't you know, don't you know?
 
[Chorus]
A5
Looking good, looking fine, looking so pretty
E5               A5
So rotten to the bone
A5
Never been hungry, never been smitten
    E5                A5
But oh, rotten to the bone
  D5                    A5
I bet you find time for looking in the mirror
D5                  A5
Twenty-five times a day
    D5                 A5
You never get tired of looking in the mirror
        B5                     E5
But you always see things in a most peculiar way
A5
Looking fine, looking fine, looking so pretty
E5               A5
So rotten to the bone

                  I left my home one day for the sake of better pay 
In a foreign land twelve centuries back in time 
Where the sun keeps pouring down on the holes down in the ground 
And I dream of the girl I left behind 

Well I signed on the dotted line and I thought in a few years time 
I'd be home and we could start a brand new life 
But everything went wrong and I just don't know how long 
They will make me stay to pay for my crime 
And I wish I was 

Rollin' home, rollin' home 
Home to the place I long to be 
Oh-oh rollin' home, rollin' home 
There's someone waiting there for me 

There's a law that rules this land that I just didn't understand 
I didn't know that I was doing wrong 
But they don't seem to care and they'll do it when they're over there 
But here you face the justice of their God 
And I wish I was 

Rollin' home, rollin' home 
Home to the place I long to be 
Oh-oh rollin' home, rollin' home 
There's someone waiting there for me 

All the money that I saved to pay for better days 
Just can't make up for how I miss you so 
There's no consolation prize but when I close my eyes 
I'm dreaming of you in our new home 
And I wish I was 

Rollin' home, rollin' home 
Home to the place I long to be 
Oh-oh rollin' home, rollin' home 
There's someone waiting there for me 

Rollin' home, rollin' home 
Home to the place I long to be 
Oh-oh rollin' home, rollin' home 
There's someone waiting there for me
