[E] [A] Bob Dylan told me he taught this song to Keith Richards.
They [E] practiced it for an hour, they were going [A] to do it in Seville, Spain.
And then Keith finally looked at Dylan and said, too many words.
[D] [E] So Dylan said to me, can you imagine [A] him saying that to me?
I said, no, Bob.
Night is falling, we're doing the things [D] we do.
[E] You are acting just like me, I'm acting [A] just like you.
Do you remember when you were my [D] friend?
[E] That's the way I'd like things, just like [A] we back then.
Baby's sleeping, brother's on [D] the run.
[E] I'm out undoing all [A] the good I've done.
If you loved me, I'd tell you what I [D] would do.
[E] I'd wrap the world in silver foil, bring [A] it home to you.

[A] [E] Lately, [A] I feel that I [D] can't pretend.
[E] I may never, ever see the likes of [A] you again.
I take a walk, I come back home, then I [D] set a spell.
[E] Watch the ponies dance around the empty [A] wishing well.
[E] Night [A] has fallen, I've said the [D] things I did.
[E] The only baby sleeping is when I [A] was a kid.
Do you remember when you were [D] my friend?
[E] That's the way I'd like things, just like we [A] back then.
