Intro: Em Em D/A E

         Em
Well it's 3pm  time to lug the gear
      Em
Gotta get it on the stage
              D/A                                 E
My muscles flex  my fuckin' sweat will save the day

        Em
When I check the mic  I fuckin' check the mic
          Em
I fuckin' checka-checka one  two  three
           D/A                                E
I plug it in  I make a sound as good as can be

            Em
Cause the rockers rock  but the roadies roll
        Em
Gotta take the mic because I take control
       D/A                               E
Gotta get that shit up on that fuckin' stage

            Em
Because the roadie knows what the roadie knows
        Em
And the roadie knows that he wears black clothes
       D/A                                E
And he hides off in the shadows off the stage

            C
Because the roadie
Asus2                               E
Looks a thousand miles with his eyes
             C
And when the crowd roars
Asus2                                  E
Brings a tear drop to the roadie's eyes
Tears of pride

           C
Because he brought you the show
     Asus2
But you will never know
     C
He's changing the strings
      Asus2
While hiding in the wings
   C               Asus2
No matter how hard  the show must go on

( E )

       Em
Then a beautiful girl come to me
    Em
She say  "Hey can I sucka your dick?"
       D/A               E
I say  "Yays  I am in love"
         Em
Then she quickly say  "I sucked your dick
     Em
Now give me that backstage pass
     D/A                               E
I do not want you roadie  I want KG's chode"

    C                                 Asus2
I'm standing at the threshold of your dreams
    C                                 Asus2
Without me there'd be no sound from those amps
   C                                  Asus2
Without me there'd be no lights on the stage
                         E
But you don't applaud for me

             C
No  I am the roadie!
Asus2                                E
Lonesome warrior searching for the soul
             C
No  I am the roadie!
Asus2              E
I make the rock go!

C   Asus2   C   Asus2   C  Asus2 E
Roadie  roadie  roadie!
