The Rolling Stones

Tom: D

Intro: D A E D 
 
 
 A   G                   D 
Hey let him follow you down, 
           A    E               D  
Way underground wind and he's bound.  
A     G              D 
Bound to follow you down, 
        A    E                    D  
Just a dead beat right off the street.  
A     G               D 
Bound to follow you down. 
           A              G        D  
Well the ballrooms and smelly bordellos  
         A            G            D 
And dressing rooms filled with parasites.  
      A        G             D 
On stage the band has got problems, 
           A        D              A  
They're a bag of nerves on first nights. 
D             A      E         D  
He ain't tied down to no home town,  
A               G               D 
Yeah, and he thought he was wreckless. 
             A     E                 D  
You think he's bad, he thinks you're mad, 
A               G                    D  
Yeah, and the guitar player gets restless.  
          A      G          D 
And his coat is torn and frayed,  
      A           G     D 
It's seen much better days. 
      A           G           D  
Just as long as the guitar plays  
         A          D     A 
Let it steal your heart away,  
         A          D     A   A D A D A E D A G D A E D A G D 
Let it steal your heart away. 
D          A       E              D 
Joe's got a cough, sounds kind a rough, 
A               G            D  
Yeah, and the codeine to fix it. 
             A      E            D  
Doctor prescribes, drug store supplies, 
A       G                  D  
Who's gonna help him to kick it  
           A      G          D 
Well his coat is torn and frayed, 
      A          G      D  
It`s seen much better days.  
          A          G       D 
Just as long as the guitar plays  
        A           D    A 
Let it steal your heart away,  
       A            D    A    D A E D 
Let it steal your heart away. 
           A        G         D        A G D 
Well this coat is torn and frayed (4x)
