LIKE A ROLLING STONE
 by Bob Dylan
C                     Dm               
Once upon a time, you dressed so fine,
Em                     F              G           
Threw the bums a dime, in your prime, didn't you?
C                 			    Dm                  
People call, say "Beware, doll, you're bound to fall."
    Em           F         G
You thought they were all kiddin' you.
F           G                   F                  G
You used to laugh about         Everybody that was hangin' out,
F                Em    Dm     C  F      Em         Dm       C
But now you don't talk so loud, Now you don't seem so proud,
      Dm                            F          G
About havin' to be scroungin' your next meal.
G             C    F            G            C    F  
How does it feel?               How does it feel.
G              C     F           G                 C     F 
To be on your own.              With no direction home.   
G               C    F          G                     C  F
A complete unknown.             Like a rollin' stone.
C                     Dm               
You've gone to the finest schools, alright, Miss Lovely,
Em                    F              G           
But you know you only used to get juiced in it.
C                 Dm                  
You never had to live out on the street,
Em             F              G
But now you're gonna have to get used to it.
F             G
You used to ride on the chrome horse with your diplomat
F					  G
Who carried on his shoulders a Siamese cat.
	      F          Em        Dm         C
Ain't it hard when you discover that
F             Em             Dm           
He really wasn't where it's at
C              Dm			      F      G   
After he took from you everything he could steal.
F                     Dm               
You never turned around to see the frowns
Em                    F              G           
On the jugglers and the clowns when they all did tricks for you.
F             G
Never understood that it ain't no good.
F					  G
You shouldn't let other people get your kicks for you.
F             G
You said you'd never compromise
F					  G
With the Mystery Tramp but now you realize
F          Em        Dm         C
He's not selling any alibis
F             Em             Dm           
As you stare into the vacuum of his eyes
C              Dm			      F      G   
And he says, "Do you want to make a deal?"
C                          Dm        Em       
Princess on the steeple and all the pretty people
F              				G           
They're all drinkin', thinkin' that they've got it made.
   C                       Dm                  
Exchanging all kinds of precious gifts,
             Em				  F            G		     Gb
You'd better lift your diamond ring, you'd better pawn it babe.
F             G
You used to be so amused
F					  G
At Napolean in rags and the language that he used
	      F          Em        Dm         C
Go to him now he calls you you can't refuse
F             Em             Dm           
When you got nothin' you got nothin' to lose
C                   Dm			      F      G   
Your invisible now you've got no secrets to conceal.
