Like a rollin stone
cold and all alone
living for the day my train would come

I never cared for school
Or any golden rule
and Papa used to always say I was a useless fool

So I left my home
to show ‘em they was wrong
and headed out on the road signin my song

Then one sunny day
the man he looked my way
and everything that I dreamed of it was real

Money, girls and cars
big long cigars
and i caught the first plane home so papa could see

----------------------------------------|

Dm |
When I went home to show em they was wrong |
G Dm |
all that i found was two tombstones |
G A Dm |
somebody tell me please was i right or wrong |
| CHORUS
Dm |
first i got lost then i got found, |
G Dm |
but the ones that i loved are in the ground |
G A Dm |
papa I only wish you could see me now |

----------------------------------------|

If there’s any way
that you could hear what I say
Papa, I never meant to do you wrong

all the money, girls and cars
and all the world’s long cigars
papa i just want you to know they couldn’t take your place

CHORUS

--------------------------------------------

The chords for the verse as I listed them:



However, you can also use:



Adding the F is more true to the song in my opinion.
This doesn’t apply to the chorus.
