Tom: E
Introdução: B7 E
E F#
As the years roll on I tramp along beside them,
B7 E
never have no cares so never need to hide them.
A F#
From the sunny north down to the south I roam,
B7 E
For I guess that I was born a rolling stone.
verse 2
F#
Sometimes I settle down and the road forgets me,
B7 E
Then the wanderlust comes on and soon upsets me,
A F#
So I down tools and I just leave work alone,
B7 E
For I guess that I was born a rolling stone.
B7 A E
My mates are far and many as I tramp through out the years,
A E F# B7
Some are rich and some are poor but o'er a glass of beer,
E F#
They're all decent blokes who share a joke with no distinction shown,
B7 E
And they're the mates of this old rolling stone.
E
yeah, I just take it easy you know.
Instrumental
E F#
How my life has changed, to me it seems like magic,
B7 E
From what I used to be, some say it's tragic, (Ha ha)
A F#
Oh but that's a story better left alone,
B7 E
For I guess that I was born a rolling stone.
verse 4
E F#
So when I'm on the track and camped beside the highway,
B7 E
Just a-lazing back a-gazing at God's skyway,
A F#
Will my footsteps ever reach that golden throne,
B7 E
Will they ever welcome in this rolling stone
