A ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Winding your way down on Baker Street ---------- Light in your head, and dead on your feet
This desert city makes you feel so cold it's got -- So many people but it's got no soul

Way down the street there's a light in his place -- You open the door, he's got that look on his face
He's got this dream about buyin' some land --- He's gonna give up the booze and the one night stands

A -------- Em ---------------------- G -------------------------------------- D --------------
Well a ----- nother crazy day you --------- drink the night away -------- And for ------ get about everything
And it's --- taken you so long to --------- find out you were wrong -- When you -- thought it held everything (chorus 1)

And he --- asks you where you've been you -- tell him who you've seen And you -- talk about anything
And ------- then he'll settle down in a --- quiet little town ---------------------- And for -- get about everything (chorus 2)

(chorus 1 :) Dm7 You used to think that it was Am7 so easy -- Dm7 You used to say that it was Am7 so easy
C But you're G trying C you're G try -- C / D ing now --
Dm7 Another year and then you would Am7 be happy Dm7 Just one more year and then you'ld Am7 be happy
C But you're G cryin' -- C you're G cry -- C / D ing now (sax)

(chorus 2 :) Dm7 But you know he'll always Am7 keep moving -- Dm7 You know he's never gonna Am7 stop moving
C Cause he's G rolling -- C He's the G roll - C / D ing stone --
Dm7 And when you wake up it's a Am7 new morning Dm7 The sun is shining it's a Am7 new morning
C And you're G going C you're G / A going home. (sax)
