[Silence]<\/p>\n

[Instrumental, Guitar, Piano, Organ, Synth, Bass, Percussion, Drums]<\/p>\n

[Intro]
\n[Instrumental Intro: Rolling Guitar Riff, Deep Bass, Steady Drums, Hammond Organ, Warm Synth]
\n[Spoken Vocal]
\nNine nine nine…<\/p>\n

And nine tenths…<\/p>\n

One more tenth spent…<\/p>\n

(One more revolution…)<\/p>\n

Watch it roll.<\/p>\n

(Acceleration of evolution!)<\/p>\n

[Refrain]
\nWatchin’ the odometer
\n(Oh yeah… that’s for sure)
\n9 9 9 and nine tenths
\n(Getting the sense)
\n…it’s about to rollover<\/p>\n

One hundred thousand
\n(And, we’re still rollin’ on some)
\nUnderstand
\n(Freedom)
\n…about to rollover<\/p>\n

Nine nine nine…
\nAnd nine tenths…
\nOne more tenth spent…
\n(One more revolution…)<\/p>\n

Watch it roll.
\n(Acceleration of evolution!)<\/p>\n

[Verse 1]
\nMiles behind us, miles ahead
\nStories from the roads we’ve tread
\nPaint is fading, wheels still turn
\nLessons gathered, bridges burned<\/p>\n

[Refrain]
\nWatchin’ the odometer
\n(Oh yeah… that’s for sure)
\n9 9 9 and nine tenths
\n(Getting the sense)
\n…it’s about to rollover<\/p>\n

One hundred thousand
\n(And, we’re still rollin’ on some)
\nUnderstand
\n(Freedom)
\n…about to rollover<\/p>\n

Nine nine nine…
\nAnd nine tenths…
\nOne more tenth spent…
\n(One more revolution…)<\/p>\n

Watch it roll.
\n(Acceleration of evolution!)<\/p>\n

[Chorus]
\nOne hundred thousand miles
\n(Still rolling)
\nOne hundred thousand miles
\n(Still going)<\/p>\n

Through the rain
\n(Through the sun)
\nThrough the miles
\n(One by one)<\/p>\n

The odometer turns
\n(The wheels keep spinning)
\nThe road rolls on
\n(Back to the beginning)<\/p>\n

[Verse 2]
\nFreedom isn’t standing still
\nIt’s the road beyond the hill
\nChoice can live beneath the hood
\nMoving onward when you could<\/p>\n

[Instrumental]
\n[Refrain]
\nWatchin’ the odometer
\n(Oh yeah… that’s for sure)
\n9 9 9 and nine tenths
\n(Getting the sense)
\n…it’s about to rollover<\/p>\n

One hundred thousand
\n(And, we’re still rollin’ on some)
\nUnderstand
\n(Freedom)
\n…about to rollover<\/p>\n

Nine nine nine…
\nAnd nine tenths…
\nOne more tenth spent…
\n(One more revolution…)<\/p>\n

Watch it roll.
\n(Acceleration of evolution!)
\n[Guitar Solo: Singing Electric Guitar, Rolling Bass, Driving Drums, Hammond Organ]<\/p>\n

[Bridge]
\nRollover
\n(Watch it change)
\nRollover
\n(Rearrange)<\/p>\n

One hundred thousand
\n(0 0 0, 0 0 0)
\nBack to begin
\n(Again)<\/p>\n

[Breakdown]
\n[Minimal Bass, Soft Kick Drum, Echo Guitar]
\nOne hundred thousand miles…<\/p>\n

And still moving.<\/p>\n

Still learning…<\/p>\n

Still choosing…<\/p>\n

Still rolling.<\/p>\n

[Final Chorus]
\nWatchin’ the odometer
\n(Oh yeah… that’s for sure)
\n9 9 9 and nine tenths
\n(Getting the sense)
\n…it’s about to rollover<\/p>\n

One hundred thousand
\n(And, we’re still rollin’ on some)
\nUnderstand
\n(Freedom)
\n…about to rollover<\/p>\n

One hundred thousand miles
\n(Still rolling)
\nOne hundred thousand miles
\n(Keep going)<\/p>\n

[Outro]
\n[Instrumental Outro: Rolling Guitar, Deep Bass, Hammond Organ, Steady Drums]
\nWatchin’ the odometer
\n(Oh yeah… that’s for sure)
\n9 9 9 and nine tenths
\n(Getting the sense)
\n…it’s about to rollover<\/p>\n

One hundred thousand
\n(And, we’re still rollin’ on some)
\nUnderstand
\n(Freedom)
\n…about to rollover<\/p>\n

Nine nine nine…
\nAnd nine tenths…
\nOne more tenth spent…
\n(One more revolution…)
\nWatch it roll.
\n(Acceleration of evolution!)<\/p>\n

Back to begin
\n(Again and again)
\nRollover again
\n(Back to begin)<\/p>\n

Again and again
\n(Again and again)<\/p>\n
