Verse 1:

     F                 C    G  Am
She hates how much it rains
          F               C    G   Am
But it’s rainin’ all the time
                     F         C
She said, “I’d like to go home,
              G              Am
I don’t feel right in these clothes,
            F          C        G   Am
and I might be losing my mind.”
                F            C     G   Am
She said, “I’m always goin ‘round,
F                      C     G   Am
round and round in my head…
             F          C
I don’t want to sleep alone,
              G       Am
we ain’t kids anymore,
              F        C     G     Am   F
but the kids are all right, yeah.”

Pre-Chorus:

E                    F
And I’ve been at her majesty’s pleasure
Am                   G                 F
But I still haven’t found a way to survive
         G
And you say

Chorus:

            C     G       Am
“Don’t you understand, I know
F          C            G       Am      F
what it’s like to be a rolling stone?”
C             G           Am     F
Haunted with heartbroken ghosts
     C                          G
And Elsie singin’ “how does it feel?”
            C        G        Am
But oh, my Lily, if you only knew,
F       C          G          Am
I only want to be haunted by you
F            C     C/B        Am       G           F
And I would crawl across the glass to bow at your feet
        G              C     G   Am   F   C   G   Am
in the service of the queen

              F              C    G   Am
She said, “I want to find a heart
      F                  C     G   Am
that breaks the same as mine
     F                 C
I’m much too young to stay
         G         Am
feeling old in my frame
         F                C         G   Am   F
sipping drinks about the good days.”

Pre-Chorus:

E                    F
And I’ve been at her majesty’s pleasure
Am                   G                 F
But I still haven’t found a way to survive
         G
And you say

Chorus:

            C     G       Am
“Don’t you understand, I know
F          C            G       Am      F
what it’s like to be a rolling stone?”

And I would crawl across the glass to bow at your feet
        G              C     G   Am   F   C   G   Am   F

Bridge:

E           Am                C
I’m always starting all over
         G                 Am           F
I don’t want to waste the nights in my life
E               Am                      C
But I never fit in, or felt home in my skin
     G           Am         F
I’m waiting on a big love, baby
C    G           Am         F
I’m waiting on a big love, baby
C    G           Am         F
I’m waiting on a big love, baby
C    G           Am         F    G
I’m waiting on a big love, baby

Chorus:

               C     G       Am
And don’t you understand, I know
F          C            G       Am      F
what it’s like to be a rolling stone?
C             G           Am     F
Haunted with heartbroken ghosts
                C                          G
And you've got Elsie singin’ “how does it feel?”
            C        G        Am
But oh, my Lily, if you only knew,
F       C          G          Am
I only want to be haunted by you
F            C     C/B        Am       G           F
And I would crawl across the glass to bow at your feet
        G              C
in the service of the queen
C    G           Am         F
I’m waiting on a big love, baby
