-1 -1   2   -2    -3   -3 -3  -3’’ -2   -2
I’m a  rol-lin’ stone, all a-lone and  lost
-1 -1   2  -2  -4 5  -4   -3   -4  -4
For a life of sin I have paid the cost
 -4 -4   5   6   -6  6   -66  5  -4
When I pass by, all the peop-le say
 -1 -1   2  -2  -3 -2 -3   -3   -3’’ -2  
Just a-noth-er guy on the lost high-way
 
Just a deck of cards and a jug of wine
And a woman’s lies make a life like mine
The day we met, Lord, I went astray
I started rolling down that lost high-way
 
I was just a lad, nearly twenty two
Neither good nor bad, just a kid like you
Now I’m lost, too late to pray
Lord, I paid the cost on the lost high-way
 
 -1   2    -2    -3    -3    -3  -3’’   -2
Now boys don’t start you’re ramb-lin’ round
 -1   -1    2  -2  -4  5    -4    -3  -4   -4
Down this road of sin oh, you’re sor-row bound
 -4   5  6   6  -6     6    -66    5  -4 
Take my ad-vice oh, you’ll curse the day
-1   -1  -1   2  -2   -3      -2  -3   2   -2
Ya start-ed rol-lin’ down…  that lost high-way
 
You can play "all a-lone and lost" as -1 -1 2 -2 -2 and 

"lost high-way" as -3 3 -2 to take the bends out of it.

One of my favorites.
