[A] winding your way down on Baker Street, light in your head and dead on your feet
well an[Em]other crazy day, you'll [G]drink the night away, and for[D]get about everything
[A] this city desert makes you feel so cold, it's got so many people but it's got no soul
and it's [Em]taken you so long to [G]find out you were wrong, when you [D]thought it held everything
{end_of_verse}

[Dm] you used to think that it was [Am]so easy, [Dm] you used to say that it was [Am]so easy
but [C]you're tryin', [G]you're tryin' [D]now
[Dm] another year and then you'd [Am]be happy, [Dm] just one more year and then you'd [Am]be happy
but [C]you're cryin', [G]you're cryin' [A]now [F]

{start_of_verse: Verse 2}
[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 [Em]asks you where you've been, you [G]tell him who you've seen, and you [D]talk about anything
[A] he's got this dream about buyin' some land, he's gonna give up the booze and the one night stands
and [Em]then he'll settle down, it's a [G]quiet little town, and for[D]get about everything
{end_of_verse}
{start_of_part: Bridge}
[Dm] but you know he'll always [Am]keep movin',[Dm] you know he's never gonna [Am]stop movin'
cause [C]he's rollin', [G]he's the rollin' [D]stone
[Dm] and when you wake up it's a [Am]new morning,[Dm] the sun is shining, it's a [Am]new morning
but [C]you're going, [G]you're going [A]home [F]
