Chords for Bob Dylan - Ballad of a Thin Man (Official Audio)

_ [B] _ [Bm] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ You walk into the room [A#] with your pencil in your hand.
[D] You see somebody naked and you [E] say, who is that man?
[G] _ You try so hard [Em] but you don't understand [D] just what you [F#m] will say when you [Bm] get home.
_ [D] Because something [F#m] is happening here but [Bm] you don't know what it [D] is, _ [G] do you [Bm] Mr.
Jones?
_ _ _ _ _ _ You raise up your head [A#] and you ask, is this where it is?
[D] Then somebody points to [G#] you and says, it's [E] his.
[G] And you say, what's mine?
And somebody [Em] else says, well, what is?
And [D] you say, oh my [F#m] God, am I here all [Bm] alone?
_ _ [D] But something [F#m] is happening and you [Bm] don't know what it is, _ [G]
do you [Bm] Mr.
Jones? _ _ _
_ _ _ You hand in your ticket [A#]
and you go watch the [D] geek
who [Bm] immediately walks [G#] up to you when he hears you [G] speak
and says, how does it [Em] feel to be such a freak?
And you [D] say, impossible, [F#m] as he hands you [Bm] a bone.
_ _ _ [D] And something [F#m] is happening here [Bm] but you don't know what it is, [G] do you Mr.
Jones?
[Bm] _ _ _ _ _ _
You have many [D] contacts among the lumberjacks [G] to get you facts when someone attacks your [Bm] imagination. _ _
But nobody has any [D] respect, anyway they already [G] expect you to all give a check
[Em] to tax deductible charity [A] organizations. _ _ _ _ _ _
[Bm] You've been with the professors [A#] and they've all liked your [D] looks.
With great lawyers you have [E] discussed lepers and crooks. _
[G] You've been through all of F.
Scott [Em] Fitzgerald's books. _
[D] You're very [F#m] well read, it's [Bm] well known. _
[D] But something [F#m] is happening here and [Bm] you don't know what it is, _
[G] do you Mr.
Jones?
_ _ [Bm] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ Well the sword swallower he comes [A#] up to you and then [Bm] he kneels.
[D] He [Bm] crosses himself and then [E] he clicks his high heels.
[G] And without further notice he asks [Em] you how it feels.
And [D] he says, here is your [F#m] throat back, thanks [Bm] for the loan.
_ _ [D] And you [F#m] know something is happening [Bm] but you don't know what [D] it is, [G] do you Mr.
[Bm] Jones? _ _ _ _ _
Now you see this one-eyed midget [A#] shouting the word now.
[D] And you say [Bm] for what reason?
[E] And he says how? _
[G] And you say what does this mean?
And [Em] he screams back, you're a cow.
[D] Give me [F#m] some milk or [Bm] else go home.
[D] And you know [F#m] something's happening [Bm] but you don't know what it is, _
[G] do you [Bm] Mr.
Jones? _ _
_ _ _ Well you walk into the room [A#] like a camel and then you frown.
[D] You [Bm] put your eyes in your pocket [E] and your nose on the ground.
[G] There ought to be a law [Em] against you coming around.
[D] You should be [F#m] made to wear [Bm] _ earphones.
_ [D] Because [F#m] something is happening [Bm] and you don't know what it is, [G] do you Mr.
[Bm] Jones? _ _ _ _ _
