Intro: B

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, didnʼt you?
 B                      C#m
Peopleʼd call, say, "Beware doll,
       D#m                         E             F#
youʼre bound to fall" You thought they were all   kiddinʼ you

 E             F#
You used to   laugh about
 E                    F#
Everybody that was   hanginʼ out

 E         D#m   C#m       B
Now you donʼt talk so loud
 E         D#m   C#m         B
Now you donʼt 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#
Like a rolling stone

B E F#

Verse:
           B            C#m                    D#m
Aww, Youʼve 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 youʼre gonna have to get   used to it

 E                    F#
You said youʼd never compromise
 E                                    F#
With the mystery tramp, but now you  realize

 E         D#m         C#m    B
Heʼs 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#
Like a rolling stone

B E F#

Verse:
        B              C#m                     D#m
Aww, You never turned around to see the frowns
                        E                        F#
On the jugglers and the clowns when they all did tricks for you
    B                        C#m
You never understood that it ainʼt no good
    D#m                  E               F#
You shouldnʼt let other people get your   kicks for you

 E                                                F#
You used to ride on the chrome horse with your diplomat
 E                               F#
Who carried on his shoulder a Siamese cat

 E             D#m           C#m       B
Ainʼt it hard when you discover that
 E          D#m     C#m          B
He really wasnʼt where itʼs 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#
Like a rolling stone

B E F#

Verse:
   B                 C#m                  D#m
Aww, Princess on the steeple and all the pretty people
            E                            F#
Theyʼre all drinkinʼ, thinkinʼ that they got it made
 B                C#m           D#m
Exchanging all precious gifts
                 E                      F#
But youʼd better take your diamond ring, youʼd better pawn it babe

 E               F#
You used to be so amused
 E                    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 canʼt refuse
 E             D#m              C#m           B
When you got nothing, you got nothing to lose
       C#m                        E           F#
Youʼre 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

B E F#
