C# D#m7
Once upon a time you dressed so fine
Fm F# G#
You threw the bums a dime in your prime, didn't you?
C# D#m7
People'd call, say, "Beware doll,
Fm F# G#
you're bound to fall" You thought they were all a kiddin' you
F# G#
You used to laugh about
F# G#
Everybody that was hangin' out
F# Fm D#m7 C#
Now you don't talk so loud
F# Fm D#m7 C#
Now you don't seem so proud
D#m7 F# G#
About having to be scrounging for your next meal.
[Chorus]
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
[Instrumental]

[Verse]
C# D#m7 Fm
Aww, 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# D#m7 Fm
Nobody has ever taught you how to live out on the street
F# G#
And now 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# Fm D#m7 C#
He's not selling any alibis
F# Fm D#m7 C#
As you stare into the vacuum of his eyes
D#m7 F# G#
And say do you want to make a deal?
[Chorus]
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#
A# complete unknown
C# F# G#
Like a rolling stone
[Instrumental]

[Verse]
C# D#m7 Fm
Aww, You never turned around to see the frowns
F# G#
On the jugglers and the clowns when they all did tricks for you
C# D#m7
You never understood that it ain't no good
Fm 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# Fm D#m7 C#
Ain't it hard when you discover that
F# Fm D#m7 C#
He really wasn't where it's at
D#m7 F# G#
After he took from you everything he could steal.
[Chorus]
C# F# G#
How does it feel
C# F# G#
How does it feel
C# F# G#
To have you on your own
C# F# G#
With no direction home
C# F# G#
Like a complete unknown
C# F# G#
Like a rolling stone
[Instrumental]

[Verse]
C# D#m7 Fm
Aww, Princess on the steeple and all the pretty people
F# G#
They're all drinkin', thinkin' that they got it made
C# D#m7 Fm
Exchanging all precious gifts
F# G#
But you'd better take your diamond ring, you'd better pawn it babe
F# G#
You used to be so amused
F# G#
At Napoleon in rags and the language that he used
F# Fm D#m7 C#
Go to him now, he calls you, you can't refuse
F# Fm D#m7 C#
When you ain't got nothing, you got nothing to lose
D#m7 F# G#
You're invisible now, you got no secrets to conceal.
[Chorus]
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
