#1. ( for original.) 

G           C                 Am 
Some people call me a teenage idol, 
            C        F    G 
Some people say they envy me. 
             C      Em     Am 
I guess they got no way of knowing, 
    F              C 
How lonesome I can be. 

#2. 
G          C             Am 
I need somebody to be my baby, 
    C              F        G 
Someone to tell my troubles to. 
G           C       Em   Am 
I've got no time to ever find her, 
      F                C 
Cause I'm just passing through. 

Chorus: 
  F                   Em 
I travel around, from town to lonely town. 
  F                 G                 C    C7 
I guess I'll always be just a rolling stone. 
          F           Em                F 
If I find fortune and fame, and lots of people 
        Em 
know my name.. 
D                                   G 
That won't mean a thing if I'm all alone. 

#3. 
G        C                     Am 
I get no rest when I'm feeling weary. 
         C       F        G 
I got to pack my bags and go. 
  C         Em        Am 
I got to be somewhere tomorrow, 
   F         G     C 
To smile and do my show. 

Chorus: 
 F                   Em 
I travel around, from town to lonely town. 
  F                 G                 C    C7 
I guess I'll always be just a rolling stone. 
          F           Em                F 
If I find fortune and fame, and lots of people 
        Em 
know my name.. 
D                                   G 
That won't mean a thing if I'm all alone. 

REPEAT#1. 
G           C                 Am 
Some people call me a teenage idol, 
            C        F    G 
Some people say they envy me. 
             C      Em     Am 
I guess they got no way of knowing, 
    F              C 
How lonesome I can be.
