[F#] [F#m]
[C#] [G#] Some people call me a [A#m] teenage idol Some people [C#] say [F#] they envy [G#] me
I guess they [C#] got no [A#m] way of knowing
[F#] [G#] me I need [C#] somebody to [Fm] be [A#m] my baby
[C#] Someone to tell [F#] my [G#] troubles to [C#] I've got no time to [A#m] ever find her
The bars [F#] aren't just [C#] passing through [F#] I travel around
[F#m] town to [C#] lonely town
[A#m] I guess I'll always be just a rolling [Fm] stone [C#] If I [F#] find fortune and fame
[F#m] Lots of people know my name [D#] That [A#m] won't mean a thing if I'm all [G#] [F#] alone
[G#] I [C#] get no rest when I'm feeling [A#m] weary I [C#] gotta pack [F#] my bags [G#] and go
I've [C#] gotta be somewhere [A#m] tomorrow [F#] To smile and do [C#] my show
[F#] I travel around
[F#m] town to lonely [C#] town I [A#m] guess I'll always be just a rolling [Fm] stone
[C#] If I [F#] find fortune and fame [F#m] Lots of people know my name
[D#] That [A#m] won't mean a thing if I'm all [G#] [F#] alone
[G#] Some [C#] people call me a [A#m] teenage idol Some people say [F#] they envy [G#] me
I [C#] guess they got no way [A#m] of knowing [F#] How lonesome I [C#] can be
[F#] How lonesome I [C#] can be
