Lyrics and Chords


Winding your way down on Baker Street
Light in your head and dead on your feet
Well another crazy day, you drink the night away
And forget about everything

/ A - / / Em G / D - /

This city desert makes you feel so cold, its got
So many people but its got no soul
And its taken you so long to find out you were wrong
When you thought it held everything

   You used to think that it was so easy
   You used to say that it was so easy
   But you're tryin', you're tryin' now
   Another year and then you'd be happy
   Just one more year and then you'd be happy
   But you're cryin', you're cryin' now

   / Dm7 Am7 / / C G D - / 1st, 2nd / C G A - /

Way down the street there's a light in his place
He opens the door, he's got that look on his face
And he asks you where you've been, you tell him who you've seen
And you talk about anything

He's got this dream about buyin' some land
He's gonna give up the booze and the one night stands
And then he'll settle down, in some quiet little town
And forget about everything

   But you know he'll always keep moving
   You know he's never gonna stop moving
   'Cause he's rollin', he's the rolling stone
   And when you wake up it's a new morning
   The sun is shining it's a new morning
   And you're going, you're going home
