Selection chords: Henry Walker

G                     Am7
Once upon a time, you dressed so fine,
Em7                    C              D         D
Threw the bums a dime, in your prime, didnʼt you?
G                 Am7                  Em7
People call, say, Beware, doll, youʼre bound to fall.
    C                     D         D
You thought they were all kiddinʼ you.

C           D
You used to laugh about
C                  D
Everybody that was hanginʼ out,
C           Em7   Am7     G
But now you donʼt talk so loud,
C       Em7   Am7     G
Now you donʼt seem so proud,
Am7                                      D D
About havinʼ to be scrounginʼ your next meal.

D           G  C D
How does it feel?
D           G  C D
How does it feel.
D           G   C D
To be on your own.
D             G    C  D
With no direction home.
D             G  C D
А complete unknown.
D             G  C D
Like a rollinʼ stone.

G                     Am7
Youʼve gone to the finest schools, alright, Miss Lovely,
Em7                    C              D     D
But you know you only used to get juiced in it.
G                 Am7               Em7
You never had to live out on the street,
    C                     D         D
But now youʼre gonna have to get used to it.

C           D
You used to ride on the chrome horse with your diplomat
C                  D
Who carried on his shoulders a Siamese cat.
C           Em7   Am7     G
Ainʼt it hard when you discover that
C           Em7   Am7     G
He really wasnʼt where itʼs at
Am7                                      D D
After he took from you everything he could steal.

D           G  C D
How does it feel?
D           G  C D
How does it feel.
D           G   C D
To be on your own.
D             G    C  D
With no direction home.
D             G  C D
А complete unknown.
D             G  C D
Like a rollinʼ stone.

G                     Am7
You never turned around to see the frowns
Em7                    C              D         D
On the jugglers and the clowns when they all did tricks for you.
G                 Am7              Em7
Never understood that it ainʼt no good.
    C                     D         D
You shouldnʼt let other people get your kicks for you.

C           D
You said youʼd never compromise
C                  D
With the Mystery Tramp but now you realize
C           Em7   Am7     G
Heʼs not selling any alibis
C           Em7   Am7     G
As you stare into the vacuum of his eyes
Am7                                  D D
And he says, Do you want to make a deal?

D           G  C D
How does it feel?
D           G  C D
How does it feel.
D           G   C D
To be on your own.
D             G    C  D
With no direction home.
D             G  C D
А complete unknown.
D             G  C D
Like a rollinʼ stone.

G                     Am7
Princess on the steeple and all the pretty people
Em7                    C              D         D
Theyʼre all drinkinʼ, thinkinʼ that theyʼve got it made.
G                 Am7               Em7
Exchanging all kinds of precious gifts,
    C                     D         D
Youʼd better lift your diamond ring, youʼd better pawn it babe.

C           D
You used to be so amused
C                  D
At Napolean in rags and the language that he used
C           Em7   Am7     G
Go to him now he calls you you canʼt refuse
C           Em7   Am7     G
When you got nothinʼ you got nothinʼ to lose
Am7                                      D D
Your invisible now youʼve got no secrets to conceal.

D           G  C D
How does it feel?
D           G  C D
How does it feel.
D           G   C D
To be on your own.
D             G    C  D
With no direction home.
D             G  C D
А complete unknown.
D             G  C D
Like a rollinʼ stone.
