 I used to be a rolling stone, you know
 If the cause was right
     A7                Bb     Am7    G    C/D
 I'd leave to find the answer on the road
   G
 I used to be a heart beating for someone
 But the times have changed
A7                    Bb      Am7       G
   The less I say the more my work gets done

 F7                           E7             Am7
 Philadelphia freedom took me knee-high to a man

 If you choose to you can live your life alone
 Some people choose the city
                                                   A7
                           (Some people choose the city)
                        Bb       Am7    G
 Some others choose the good old family home
                                                                       C/D

 I like living easy without family ties (living easy)
                                   A7
 Till the whippoorwill of freedom zapped me
 Bb       Am7       G
 Right between the eyes
