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