Baker ST - Chords

This song tells the story of a man winding down on Baker Street after a long night of drinking and forgetting his problems. The lyrics describe the man feeling cold in the city with no soul, and trying for years to be happy by moving or changing his lifestyle, but always finding himself back where he started, unable to stop moving. The chorus and saxophone solo repeat, emphasizing the man's inability to escape his restless lifestyle on Baker Street.

A
Winding your way down on Baker Street
A
Light in your head, and dead on your feet
Em G
Well another crazy day, you drink the night away
D
And forget about everything

A
This city's dance makes you feel so cold, it's got
A
So many people but its got no soul
Em G
And its taken you so long to find out you were wrong
D
When you thought it held everything.

Dm7 Am7
You used to think that it was so easy
Dm7 Am7
You used to say that it was so easy
C2 G D
But you're trying, you're trying now
Dm7 Am7
Another year and then you'd be happy
Dm7 Am7
Just one more year and then you'd be happy
C2 G A G
But you're crying, you're crying now

A
Way down the street there's a light in his place
A
You open the door, he's got that look on his face
Em G
And he asks you where you've been, you tell him who you've seen
D
And you talk about everything
Baker Street – Gerry Rafferty

A
He's got this dream about buying some land
A
He's gonna give up the crack and the one night stands

Em G
And then he'll settle down, it's a quiet little town
D
And forget about everything

Dm7 Am7
But you know he'll always keep moving
Dm7 Am7
You know he's never gonna stop moving
C2 G D
Cause he's rolling, he's the rolling stone
Dm7 Am7
And when you wake up it's a new morning
Dm7 Am7
The sun is shining it's a new morning
C2 G A G
And you're going, you're going home

--Guitar Solo—(same chords as Sax Solo)

--Repeat Sax Solo: G7 D G7 D G7 C Asus4 G__X2
