Like a Rolling Stone --- Bob Dylan
[C]Once
upon a time, you [Dm7]dressed so fine
You [C]threw
the bums a dime, [F]in your prime. [G]Didn’t
you?
[C]People’d
call, say: [Dm7]“Beware Doll, you’re [C]bound
to fall.”
You thought [F]they
were all -- [G]kiddin. you.
[F]You
used to [G]laugh about --
[F]Everybody
that was [G]hangin’ out.
[F]Now
you [C]don’t [Dm7]talk
so [C]loud,
[F]Now
you [C]don’t [Dm7]seem
so [C]proud,
A-[Dm]bout
having to be scrounging [F]for your next
[G]meal!
[chorus] How does it feel? [C] [F]
[G]
How does it feel? [C] [F]
[G]
To be without a home? [C] [F]
[G]
Like a complete unknown? [C] [F]
[G]
Like a rolling stone? [C] [F]
[G]
Ah, you’ve [C]gone
to the [Dm7]finest school all [C]right,
Miss Lonely
But you [F]know
you only used to get [G]juiced in it.
And no- [C]body
has ever taught you [Dm7]how to live on
the [C]street.
But now you’re [F]gonna
have to get [G]used to it.
[F]You
said you’d never [G]compromise
[F]With
the mystery tramp, but now you [G]realize
[F]He’s
not [C]selling any [Dm7]alibis
[C]
[F]As
you stare into the [C]vacuum [Dm7]of
his [G]eyes
And [Dm]say:
“Do you want to [F]make a [G]deal?”
[chorus]
You [C]never
turned around to [Dm7]see the frowns on
the jugglers and the [C]clowns
When they [F]all
came down and did [G]tricks for you.
You [C]never
understood that it [Dm7]ain’t no good.
You [C]shouldn’t
let other [F]people get your [G]kicks
for you.
[F]You
used to ride on the chrome horse with your [G]diplomat
[F]Who
carried on his shoulder a [G]Siamese cat.
[F]Ain’t
it [C]hard when you dis-[Dm7]cover
that [C]
[F]He
really [C]wasn’t [Dm7]where
it’s [G]at
[Dm]After
he took from you [F]everything he could [G]steal?
[chorus]
[C]Princess
on the [Dm7]steeple and all the [C]pretty
people
They’re [F]all
drinkin’ thinkin’ that they [G]got it
made.
[C]Exchanging
all [Dm7]precious gifts.
[C]But
you better [F]take your diamond ring. [G]You’d
better pawn it, babe.
[F]You
used to be [G]so amused
[F]At
Napoleon in rags [G]and the language that
he used.
[F]Go
to him now. He [C]calls you. You [Dm7]can’t
refuse. [C]
[F]When
you ain’t got [C]nothin’, you got [Dm7]nothin’
to [G]lose.
You’re in-[Dm]visible
now. You got no secrets [F]to con-[G]ceal.
[chorus] How does it feel? [C] [F]
[G]
How does it feel? [C] [F]
[G]
To be without a home? [C] [F]
[G]
Like a complete unknown? [C] [F]
[G]
Like a rolling stone? [C] [F]
