Winding your w

ay down on Bak

Light in your head, and dead on your feet
            
Well, another 

              
crazy day, you

 
 drink the nig

ht away
       
And forget abo

ut everything


This city dese

rt makes you f

eel so cold, i

t's got

So many people but it's got no soul
            
And it's taken

              
 you so long t

  
o find out you

 were wrong
         
When you thoug

ht it held eve

rything


[Chorus]

           
You used to th

              
ink that it wa

  
s so easy
           
You used to sa

              
y that it was 


so easy
             
But you're try

             
in', you're tr

     
yin' now
           
Another year a

              
nd then you'd 


be happy
           
Just one more 

              
year and then 

      
you'd be happy
             
But you're cry

             
in', you're cr

     
yin' now


[Verse]


Way down the s

treet there's 

a light in his

 place

You open the door, he's got that look on his face
            
And he asks yo

              
u where you've

           
 been, you tel

l him who you'

ve seen
        
And you talk a

bout anything


He's got this 

dream about bu

yin' some land

He's gonna give up the booze and the one night stands
            
And then he'll

              
 settle down, 

     
in a quiet lit

tle town
       
And forget abo

ut everything


[Chorus]

           
But you know h

            
e'll always ke


ep moving
           
You know he's 

            
never gonna st


op moving
             
Cause he's rol

             
lin', he's the

         
 rolling stone
           
And when you w

              
ake up it's a 


new morning
           
The sun is shi

             
ning, it's a n


ew morning
             
And you're goi

             
ng, you're goi

   
ng home
