like a rolling stone chords
bob dylan

C Dm7
once upon a time you dressed so fine
Em F G
you threw the bums a dime in your prime , didn’t you?
C Dm7 Em
people’d call , say , “beware doll , you’re bound to fall”
F G
you thought they were all kiddin’ you
F G
you used to laugh about
F G
everybody that was hangin’ out
F C Dm7 C
now you don’t talk so loud
F C Dm7 C
now you don’t seem so proud
Dm F G
about having to be scrounging for your next meal .

C F G
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 Dm7 Em
you’ve gone to the finest school all right , miss lonely
F G
but you know you only used to get juiced in it
C Dm7 Em
and nobody has ever taught you how to live on the street
F G
and now you find out you’re gonna have to get used to it
F G
you said you’d never compromise
F G
with the mystery tramp , but now you realize
F C Dm7 C
he’s not selling any alibis
F C Dm7 C
as you stare into the vacuum of his eyes
Dm F G
and ask him do you want to make a deal?

C F G
how does it feel
C F G
how does it feel
C F G
to be on your own
C F G
with no direction home
C F G
like a complete unknown
C F G
like a rolling stone?

C Dm7 Em
you never turned around to see the frowns on the jugglers and the clowns
F G
when they all come down and did tricks for you
C Dm7
you never understood that it ain’t no good
Em F G
you shouldn’t let other people get your kicks for you
F G
you used to ride on the chrome horse with your diplomat
F G
who carried on his shoulder a siamese cat
F C Dm7 C
ain’t it hard when you discover that
F C Dm7 C
he really wasn’t where it’s at
Dm F G
after he took from you everything he could steal .

C F G
how does it feel
C F G
how does it feel
C F G
to be on your own
C F G
with no direction home
C F G
like a complete unknown
C F G
like a rolling stone?

princess on the steeple and all the pretty people
they’re drinkin’ , thinkin’ that they got it made
exchanging all kinds of precious gifts and things
but you’d better lift your diamond ring , you’d better pawn it babe
you used to be so amused
at napoleon in rags and the language that he used
go to him now , he calls you , you can’t refuse
when you got nothing , you got nothing to lose
you’re invisible now , you got no secrets to conceal .

C F G
how does it feel
C F G
how does it feel
C F G
to be on your own
C F G
with no direction home
C F G
like a complete unknown
C F G
like a rolling stone?
