Hey, Mr.
Tambourine Man, play a song for me.
I'm not sleepy and there is no [E] place I'm going to.
[A] Hey, Mr.
Tambourine Man, play a song for me.
In the jingle-jangle morning, [E] I'll come [A] following you.
Though I know that evening's empire has returned into sand,
vanished from my head, left me blindly here to stand, but [E] still not sleeping.
[A] My weariness amazes me, I'm stranded on my feet, and I have no one to meet,
and the ancient, empty streets still [E] dead for dreaming.
[A] Hey, Mr.
Tambourine Man, play a song for [A]
me.
In the jingle-jangle morning, [E] I'll come [B] following you.
[A]
Though you might hear laughing, spinning, swinging madly across the sun,
it's not aimed at anyone, it's just escaping on the run,
and before the sky, [E] no fences facing.
And
[A] if you hear me chasing, I'm skipping reels of brine,
to guard tambourine and gun, it's just a ragged clown behind,
I wouldn't pay it any mind, it's just a shadow, you'll see in [E] the depth she's chasing.
[A] Hey, Mr.
Tambourine Man, play a song for me.
In the jingle-jangle morning, [E] I'll come [A] following you.
Take me on a trip, up on your magic swirling ship,
my [F#m] senses have [A] been stripped, [B]
[A] my hands can't feel to grip,
my toes too numb to step, wait only for [B] my boot heels [E]
to be [G#] wandering.
[A]
I'm ready to go anywhere, [E] I'm [A] ready for the fade,
into my own parade, cast your dancing spell my way, I promise [E] you'll go under it.

Then take me disappearing, through the smoke rings of my mind,
down the [F#m] foggy ruins of time, [A] far past the frozen leaves,
the haunted frightened tree, out to the windy beach,
[F#] far from [C#m] this twisted [B] reach of [E] crazy sorrow.
[A] Yes, the dance beneath the diamond sky, with one hand waving free,
silhouetted by the sea, circled by the circus sands,
with all memory and faith, living deep beneath the waves,
let me forget about today [E] until [Bm] tomorrow.
[E] Hey, [A] Mr.
Tambourine Man, play a song for me,
I'm not sleepy and there is no [E] place I'm [Bm] going to.
