Early one morning [D] the sun was shining, [E] he was lying [D] in bed,

[E] And they drove that [D] car as far as they could, [E]
abandoned it [D] out west, [E] and split up on [Bm] the

[F#m] And she turned around [C#m] to look at [E] him as he was walking [A] away.
[F#m] She said this can't [C#m] be the end, [E] we'll meet on another [A] day on the [F#m] avenue.
[E] Tangled up in blue.
[A] [E]
He had a job [D] in the old north woods,
[E] working as a cook for a [D] spell.
But [E] he never did like [Bm] it all that [E] much and one [B] day the axe [A] eyes fell.
[E] When he drifted down [D] to LA, [E] where he reckoned to try [D] his luck.
[E]
Working for a while [Bm] in an airplane [E] plant loading cargo onto [A] a truck.
[F#m] But all the while [C#m] he was alone, [E]
past his clothes [A] behind.

She was working [D] in a topless place, [E] I stopped in for [D] a beer.
[E] I just kept looking at [Bm] the side of her [E] face and the spotlight [A] so clear.
[E]
And later on [D] as the crowd thinned out, [E]
I was about to do the [D] same.
She [E] was standing there [D] in back of my [E] chair, I said tell me what's your [A] name?
I muttered something [C#m] underneath my [E] breath, she studied the lines of [A] my face.
I must admit it felt [C#m] a little [E] uneasy when she bent down to [A] tie the laces of my shoes.
[E] [B] Tangled up in [E] blue.

She lit a burner [Bm] on the stove [E] and offered me [D] a pipe.
[E] Thought you'd [D] never say hello, she said, [E] you look like a [A] silent type.
[E]
Then she opened [D] up a book of poems [E] and handed it to [D] me.
[E] Written by an [Bm] Italian poet [E] from the 13th [A] century.
And every one of them [C#m] words rang true [E] and glowed like burning [A] coal.
[F#m] Pouring off of [C#m] every [E] page like it was [B] written [E] in [A] my soul.
From me to you, [E] tangled up in blue.

[E] He thought they were [D] successful, [E] she thought they [D] were blessed.
[E] Real objects [D] and material things, [E] but I never was [A] impressed.
And when it all [C#m] came crashing down, [E] I became [A] withdrawn.
