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

c4  c c   c a3 a f4 e d c d e d  g f  d c d    f f f
|C          |A7sus4           |G          |          |

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.
