[Verse]
B C#m
Once upon a time you dressed so fine
D#m E F#
You threw the bums a dime in your prime, didn't you?
B C#m
People'd call, say Beware doll,
D#m E F#
you're bound to fall. You thought they were all kiddin' you
[Pre-chorus]
E F# E
You used to laugh about
F#
Everybody that was hangin' out
E D#m C#m B
Now you don't talk so loud
E D#m C#m B
Now you don't seem so proud
C#m E F#
About having to be scrounging for your next meal.
[Chorus]
B E F#
How does it feel
B E F#
How does it feel
B E F#
To be without a home
B E F#
Like a complete unknown
B E F# F#
Like a rolling stone?
[Verse]
B C#m D#m
Aww, you've gone to the finest school all right, Miss Lonely
E F#
But you know you only used to get juiced in it
B C#m D#m
Nobody has ever taught you how to live on the street
E F#
And now you're gonna have to get used to it
[Pre-chorus]
E F# E
You said you'd never compromise
F#
With the mystery tramp, but now you realize
E D#m C#m B
He's not selling any alibis
E D#m C#m B
As you stare into the vacuum of his eyes
C#m E F#
And say do you want to make a deal?
[Chorus]
B E F#
How does it feel
B E F#
How does it feel
B E F#
To be on your own
B E F#
With no direction home
B E F#
Like a complete unknown
B E F# F#
Like a rolling stone
[Verse]
B C#m
Aww, You never turned around to see the frowns
D#m E F#
On the jugglers and the clowns when they all did tricks for you
B C#m D#m
You never understood that it ain't no good
E F#
You shouldn't let other people get your kicks for you
[Pre-chorus]
E F# E
You used to ride on the chrome horse with your diplomat
F#
Who carried on his shoulder a Siamese cat
E D#m C#m B
Ain't it hard when you discover that
E D#m C#m B
He wasn't really where it's at
C#m E F#
After he took from you everything he could steal.
[Chorus]
B E F#
How does it feel
B E F#
How does it feel
B E F#
To be on your own
B E F#
With no direction home
B E F#
Like a complete unknown
B E F# F#
Like a rolling stone
[Verse]
B C#m D#m
Aww, Princess on the steeple and all the pretty people
E F#
They're all drinkin', thinkin' that they got it made
B C#m D#m
Exchanging all kind of precious gifts
E F#
But you'd better take your diamond ring, you'd better pawn it babe
[Pre-chorus]
E F# E
You used to be so amused
F#
At Napoleon in rags and the language that he used
E D#m C#m B
Go to him now, he calls you, you can't refuse
E D#m C#m B
When you got nothing, you got nothing to lose
C#m E F#
You're invisible now, you got no secrets to conceal.
[Chorus]
B E F#
How does it feel
B E F#
How does it feel
B E F#
To be on your own
B E F#
With no direction home
B E F#
Like a complete unknown
B E F#
Like a rolling stone
