[Intro]
| C Fmaj7/C | C Fmaj7/C | C Fmaj7/C | C Fmaj7/C |
[Verse 1]
C Dm
Once upon a time you dressed so fine
Em F/C
Threw the bums a dime in your prime,
G/D
didn't you?
C Dm
People call, say "Beware doll,
Em
you're bound to fall"
F/C G/D
You thought they were all a'kiddin' you
[Pre-Chorus]
F/C G/D
You used to laugh about
F/C G/D
Everybody that was hangin' out
F/C Em Dm C
Now you don't talk so loud
F/C Em Dm C
Now you don't seem so proud
Dm F/C G/D
About having to be scrounging your next meal
C F/C
How does it feel?
[Chorus]
G/D C F/C
How does it feel?
G/D C F/C
To be without a home?
G/D C F/C
Like a complete unknown?
G/D C F/C
Like a rolling stone?
[Verse 2]
G/D C F/C G/D
Aw,
C Dm
you've gone to the finest school all right,
Em
Miss Lonely
F/C G/D
But ya' know ya' only used to get juiced in it
C Dm Em
Nobody's ever taught ya' how to live out on the street And
F/C
now you're gon
G/D
na have to get used to it
[Pre-Chorus]
F/C G/D
You say you never compromise
F/C G/D
With the mystery tramp but now you realize
F/C Em Dm C
He is not selling any alibis
F/C Em Dm C
As you stare into the vacuum of his eyes
Dm F/C
And say, "Do you want to make a deal?"
G/D
C F/C
How does it feel?
[Chorus]
G/D C F/C
How does it feel?
G/D C F/C
To be on your own
G/D C F/C
With no direction home
G/D C F/C
A complete unknown
G/D C F/C
Like a rolling stone?
[Verse 3]
G/D C F/C G/D
Aw,
C Dm
you never turned around to see the frowns
Em F/C G/D
On the jugglers and the clowns when they all did tricks
for you
C Dm
Never understood that it ain't no good
Em F/C G/D
You shouldn't let other people get your kicks for you
[Pre-Chorus]
F/C G/D
You used to ride on a chrome horse with your diplomat
F/C G/D
Who carried on his shoulder a Siamese cat
F/C Em Dm C
Ain't it hard when you discover that
F/C Em Dm C
He really wasn't where it's at
Dm F/C G/D
After he took from you everything he could steal?
C F/C
How does it feel?
[Chorus]
G/D C F/C
How does it feel?
G/D C F/C
To hang out on your own
G/D C F/C
With no direction home
G/D C F/C
Like a complete unknown
G/D C F/C
Like a rolling stone?
[Verse 4]
G/D C F/C G/D
Aw,
C Dm Em
princess on the steeple and all the pretty people
F/C
They're all drinkin',
G/D
thinkin' that they got it made
C Dm
Exchangin' all precious gifts
Em F/C
But you'd better take your diamond ring,
G/D
ya' better pawn it, babe
[Pre-Chorus]
F/C G/D
You used to be so amused
F/C G/D
At Napoleon in rags and the language that he used
F/C Em
Go to him now, he calls ya',
Dm C
ya' can't refuse
F/C
When ya' ain't got nothin',
Em Dm C
you got nothin' to lose
Dm
You're invisible now,
F/C G/D
ya' got no secrets to conceal
How does it feel?
[Chorus]
C F/C G/D C F/C
Aw, how does it feel?
G/D
To be on your own
C F/C G/D C F/C
With no direction home
G/D C F/C
Like a complete unknown
G/D
Like a rolling stone?
