Verse 1
(G major) Now I can't say there's
any laws
(C major) that rolling stones don't gather moss,
(D major) I wouldn't (C major) gather any if (D major) I could.
But though (G major) my friends keep selling me
this (C major) handy folk philosophy,
(D major) more I've heard the
(C major) less I've understood. (G major)
Don't ever count your rolling stone (D major) s
till they gather moss,
Cause when good shit's in the hand
that's worth two grid (G major) s,
you can't cross it, baby,
don't (C major) look back (D major) to see what you've
(G major) been through (E minor)
(D major) Cause something might be getting ground
Verse 2

Verse 3
I used to be (G major) the cautious kind,
(C major) never entered nothing blind,
(D major) and I came to every bridge
(C major) before (D major) I crossed
And I al (G major) ways looked before I
Verse 4
(C major) leaped,
until some educated creep
(D major) told me that a few hes (C major) itations lost (G major)
Well, that started me to thinking,
which is some (C major) times
worse than drinking,
(D major) before too long I'd have
(C major) really worn (D major) my mind
But I (G major) found that what
some people said
was how (C major) a man could get ahead
(D major) was someone else's way (C major) to fall behind
(G major) Don't ever count your rolling stones
(D major) until you've got them all
Cause a good stitch in the hand's
worth two rib (G major) s,
you can't cross them baby,
don't (C major) look back (D major) to see what you've been through
(G major) Though (E minor) something (D major) might
be getting ground on (G major) you
It seems to me that when I try to walk
(C major) toward my head up high,
(D major) while keeping both feet on (C major) the ground,
(D major) I stumble over things
If (G major) I never tried to climb,
I (C major) wouldn't fall down all the time,
(D major) but neither would a frog (C major) if he had wings (G major)
Did you ever stop and wonder
if (C major) Athens makes a heart grow (D major) fonder
or if out of sight is (C major) really out (D major) of mind?
While (G major) you sit there coolly sippin'
try (C major) keepin' a stiff upper lip
and push (D major) in' in the tarp
(C major) at the same time. (G major)
Don't ever count your rollin' stone (D major) s
until they gather moss
Cause a good stitch in the hand
is worth two bridges (G major) you
can't cross
And baby, don't (C major) look back (D major) to see
what you've been through (G major)
(E minor) Though (D major) something might
be getting ground on you (G major)
