BAKER STREET
Gerry Rafferty/Waylon Jennings cover
[Intro 1]
G D G D F C A G Dm D F C A G
F D F D F C A7 G
[Verse]
AWinding your way down on Asus4Baker Street
ALight in your head, and Asus4dead on your feet
Well anEmother crazy day, you Gdrink the night away
D(Dsus4) D  
And forget about every thing
AThis city desert makes you Asus4feel so cold,
it?s got ASo many people but it?s Asus4got no soul
And it?s Emtaken you so long to Gfind out you were wrong
D(Dsus4) D  
When you thought it held every thing.
[Chorus]
Dm7You used to think that it was Am7so easy
Dm7You used to say that it was Am7so easy
But Cyou're tryin, Gyou're tryin Dnow
Dm7Another year and then you'd Am7be happy
Dm7Just one more year and then you'd Am7be happy
But Cyou're cryin', Gyou're cryin Anow
AWay down the street there's a Asus4light in his place
AHe opens the door; he's got that Asus4look on his face
And he Emasks you where you?ve been, you Gtell him who you've seen
D(Dsus4) D  
And you talk about any thing
AHe's got this dream about Asus4buyin' some land
AHe's gonna give up the booze and the Asus4one night stands
And Emthen he'll settle down, it's a Gquiet little town
D(Dsus4) D  
And forget about every thing
[Chorus]
Dm7But you know he'll always Am7keep moving
Dm7You know he's never gonna Am7stop moving
Cause Che's rollin, GHe's the rolling Dstone
Dm7And when you wake up it's a Am7new morning
Dm7The sun is shining it's a Am7new morning
And Cyou're going, Gyou're going Ahome
