A
   Windin' your way down on Baker Street


Light in your head and dead on your feet

     Em7
Well another crazy day

       G
You'll drink the night away

    D
And forget about everything

A
    This city desert makes you feel so cold.


It's got so many people but it's got no soul

         Em7
And it's taken you so long

   G
To find out you were wrong

         D
When you thought it held everything

Dm7                              Am
   You used to think that it was so easy

Dm7                            Am
   You used to say that it was so easy

    C
But you're tryin'

G               D
You're tryin' now

Dm7                              Am
    Another year and then you'll be happy

Dm7                                   Am
   Just one more year and then you'll be happy

    C
But you're cryin'
                             ..sax begins
G              A         F/G
You're cryin' now

A
   Way down the street there's a light in his place


He opens the door he's got that look on his face

       Em7
And he asks you where you've been

    G
You tell him who you've seen

        D                        D
And you 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

    Em7                            G
And then he'll settle down in some quiet little town

    D
And forget about everything

Dm7                           Am
    But you know he'll always keep movin'

Dm7                          Am
   You know he's never gonna stop movin

      C
Cause he's rollin'

G                D         C/D     D
He's the rollin' stone

Dm7                         Am
And when you wake up it's a new mornin'

Dm7                       Am
The sun is shinin' it's a new mornin'

C
You're goin'
                                   ..sax solo begins
G            A          F/G
You're goin' on.
