[Intro]
G    Bm   C    Am
D    Em   Am   Bm
C    Am   D
 
 
[Verse 1]
G          C
Until that day
            Am
My life had been a river following
   D                  Am
A safe, predestinated course
D                     Am
Suddenly detouring so unexpectedly
D                   G
With uncompromising force
   C                          Em
My strongholds broke down all too easily
C          Am
I remember well
B7         Em
How it did embarrass me
Am           Em
I hung on to his every smile
Am              D     Dsus4  D
Marveled at his style
 
 
[Chorus]
Gsus4     G
Just like that
          Bm
He walked into my house
   C         C/A
As smug as a cat
       Am           D
He was handsome and smart
Dsus4               G
Walked away with my heart
Gsus4     G
Just like that
           Bm        C
He found a temporary home
      C/A
In my flat
        Am
Telling innocent lies
D                   G
Throwing dust in my eyes
Gsus4         G     C
But I led him on
B7           Em      C            D
Knowing that someday soon he'd be gone
Gsus4     G
Just like that
             Bm             C           C/A
As though he only stopped a while for a chat
       Am         D
But my secrets he learned
                 G
Leaving no stone unturned

[Verse 2]
G        C
And once again
            Am
The river's flowing slowly
              D                   Am
Following its safe and uneventful course
D
Now the tears have dried
     Am
It's become a pleasant break
  D              G
I recall without remorse
    C
But now and then
         Em
I wonder where he is
C          B7
And I will admit
       Em
He had something that I miss
Am               Em
I guess he was a rolling stone
    Am            D     Dsus4   D
The only one I've known
 
 
[Chorus]
Gsus4     G
Just like that
          Bm
He walked into my house
   C         C/A
As smug as a cat
       Am           D
He was handsome and smart
Dsus4               G
Walked away with my heart
Gsus4     G
Just like that
           Bm        C
He found a temporary home
      C/A
In my flat
        Am
Telling innocent lies
D                   G
Throwing dust in my eyes
Gsus4         G     C
But I led him on
B7           Em      C            D
Knowing that someday soon he'd be gone
Gsus4     G
Just like that
             Bm             C           C/A
As though he only stopped a while for a chat
       Am         D
But my secrets he learned
                 G
Leaving no stone unturned

              Until that day
My life had been a river
Following the same, pre-destinated course,
Suddenly detouring so unexpectedly
With uncompromising force.
My strongholds broke down all too easily;
I remember well,
How it did embarrass me;
I hung on to his every smile
Marveled at his style

Just like that...
He walked into my house
As smug as a cat
He was handsome and smart
Walked away with my heart
Just like that...
He found a temporary home in my flat
Telling innocent lies
Throwing dust in my eyes
But I led him on,
Knowing that someday soon he'd be gone
Just like that...
As though he only stopped awhile for a chat;
But my secrets he learned
Leaving no stone unturned

And once again, the river's flowing slowly,
Following its safe and uneventful course.
Now the tears have dried,
it's become a pleasant break,
I recall without remorse.
But now and then
I wonder where he is
And I will admit,
he had something that I miss.
I guess he was a rolling stone;
The only one I've known.

Just like that...
He walked into my house
As smug as a cat
He was handsome and smart
Walked away with my heart
Just like that...
He found a temporary home in my flat
Telling innocent lies
Throwing dust in my eyes
But I led him on,
Knowing that someday soon he'd be gone
Just like that...
As though he only stopped awhile for a chat;
But my secrets he learned
Leaving no stone unturned
