G 
I've dodged the flame of love, my heart's been slippery and cold 
                                     F                  C      G 
I always thought I'd walk this path, 'least until I was almost old 
Those sweet lips and eyes of green cut me like a blade of steel 
                                     F            C         G 
Pull my heart like an eighteen wheel running up a Tennessee hill 

C       G                 F          C         G 
I was a rollin' stone, my feet never touch the ground 
C           G             F          C      G 
She was the only one that ever could tie me down

G 
Feel like I left behind, trapped to an angel's wings 
                            F              C     G 
Bounded to a new born love, tied up in the apron strings 
I used to live alone, never needed anyone 
                                 F           C      G 
And she turned my head around, I didn't even try to run 

      C     G                 F          C         G 
Yeah, I was rollin' stone, my feet never touch the ground 
C           G             F          C      G 
She was the only one that ever could tie me down

Lookin' back, I realize happy is not what I was 
                                                      F               C         G 
When you run across a woman, it's your true love that stronger than a moonshine buzz 

      C     G                 F          C         G 
Yeah, I was rollin' stone, my feet never touch the ground
