[Bb] Winding your way down on

Well an-
[Fm]-other crazy day, you
[Ab] drink the night away
And for-
[Eb]-get about every-
[Eb]-thing
VERSE 2:
[Bb] This city desert makes you
[Bb] feel so cold
It's got
[Bb] so many people but it's
[Bb] got no soul
And it's
[Fm] taken you so long, to
[Ab] find out you were wrong
When you
[Eb] thought it held every-
[Eb]-thing
BRIDGE 1:
[Ebm7] You used to think that it was

[Bb] now

VERSE 3:
[Bb] Way down the street there's a
[Bb] light in his place
He
[Bb] opens the door, he's got that

And he

[Ab] tell him who you've seen
And you
[Eb] talk about any-
[Eb]-thing
VERSE 4:
[Bb] He's got this dream about
[Bb] buyin' some land
He's gonna
[Bb] give up the booze and the

And

[Ab] quiet little town
And for-
[Eb]-get about every-
[Eb]-thing
BRIDGE 3:
[Ebm7] But you know he'll always
[Bbm] keep moving
[Ebm7] You know he's never gonna

Cause
[Db] he's rollin',
[Ab] he's the rolling
[Eb] stone

[Ebm7] And when you wake up it's a
[Bbm] new morning

And

[Ab] you're going
[Bb] home
