Baker Street - Gerry Rafferty Cover

I sang this a couple years ago with my MIDI File.
"Baker Street" is a song by Gerry Rafferty, first released in 1978. Named after the famous London street of the same name, the song was featured on Rafferty's second solo album City to City. The single was a top 3 hit in both the UK (#3) and the US (#2) and also made the top 10 in The Netherlands (#9).

Windin' your way down on Baker Street
Light in your head and dead on your feet
Well another crazy day
You'll drink the night away
And forget about everything
This city desert makes you feel so cold.
It's got so many people but it's got no soul
And it's taking you so long
To find out you were wrong
When you thought it had everything

You used to think that it was so easy
You used to say that it was so easy
But you're tryin'
You're tryin' now
Another year and then you'll be happy
Just one more year and then you'll be happy
But you're cryin'
You're cryin' now

Way down the street there's a lad in his place
He opens the door he's got that look on his face
And he asks you where you've been
You tell him who you've seen
And you talk about anything

He's got this dream about buyin' some land
He's gonna give up the booze and the one night stands
And then he'll settle down there's a quiet little town
And forget about everything

But you know he'll always keep movin'
You know he's never gonna stop movin
Cus he's rollin'
He's the rollin' stone

And when you wake up it's a new mornin'
The sun is shinin' it's a new morning
You're goin'
You're goin' home.

Thanks Mark! The more you use Pinnacle the better you get. I just experiment and throw anything in that works. Still have not scratched the surface with all it can do!

Yeah man! This is a sweeeet tune. I finally got a video out of Pinacle, totally simple one I did with Ben. Still have lots to learn to become a master like you!
