[Verse 1]
             
 Winding your 

        
way down on Ba

 Lite in your

Well an- other

ght away
             
And for- get a

         
bout e- very- 

 
thing

             
 This city des

        
ert makes you 

              
feel so cold, 

   
it's got
             
 So many peopl

        
e but it's got

        
 no soul
            
And it's taken

              
 you so long t

 
o find out you

 were wrong
             
When you thoug

 You used to t

              
hink that it w

  sy
           
 You used to s

              
ay that it was

      
 so ea-       


 sy
             
But you're try

        -  -  -

 Another year 

             
and then you'd

      
 be ha-      p

 Just one more

[Verse 2]
             
  Way down the

         
 street there'

             
s a light in h

           
is place
             
He opens the d

         
oor, he's got 

             
that look on h

          
is face
            
And he asks yo

              
u where you've

           
 been, you tel

l him who you'

ve seen
             
And you talk a

         
bout a- ny-   

 
  thing

             
 He's got this

         
 dream a- bout

             
   buyin' some

       
 land
             
He's gonna giv

              
e up the booze

        
 and the one n

             
ight stands
            
And then he'll

              
 settle down, 

        
in some quiet 

little town
             
And for- get a

         
bout e- very- 


thing

[Chorus 2]
           
 But you know

eep mo-     vi

ng
           
 You know he's

            
 never gonna s

ng
             
Cause he's rol

             
lin', he's the

       
 rolling stone
           
 And when you 

              
wake up it's a

      
 new mor-     


ning
           
 The sun is sh
