I was laying in bed wondering if she'd change at [G] all if her hair was still red
[D]
Her folks said our lives together sure was gonna be rough
They never did like when we was homemade [G] dressing for this banquet was big enough
[A] I was [Bm] standing at the side of the [D] road, the rain falling [G] on my shoes
[A]
Heading [Bm] up for the east [D] coast, I know the [G] pace he's doing is [A] getting through
[G] Tangled [D] up in blue,
[A]
[D] she was married when we first met, soon to be divorced
I helped her out of her jam I [G] guess but it just elevated too much for us
[D] We drove that [A] car as we [D] could and abandoned it out west
Spit [A] up on the dark sat [G] night while the green lamp was [A] based
Turned [Bm] around and looked at [D] me as I was [G] broken away
[A] I heard her [Bm] say over my shoulder [D] we'll meet again [G] someday on the [A] avenue
[G] Tangled [D] up in blue
[A] [D]
[A] [D] And I had a job [A] with great numbers, [D]
working as a cook for a spare
[D] But I never did like it all that much [G] and one day the axe just fell
[D] So I drifted [Am] down to New [D] Orleans, I was lucky enough to [Am] be employed
[D] Working for a man on a fishing boat [G] right out of the Delacorte
[A] I know I [Bm] was alone, [D]
I was close [G] behind
[A] I seen a lot [Bm] of women, [D] but she never escaped [G] my mind
And I [A] just grew, [C]
tangled up [D] in blue
[A] She [D] [A]
[D] [A]
[D] was working in a topless place and I stopped in for a beer
Couldn't stop looking [Am] at the side of her [G] face in the spotlight so clear
[D] And later on when the crowd turned out, I was about to do [Am] the same
[D] She came up behind [E] me in the back of my chair [G] and said, tell me don't I know your name
[A] I'm on it, something [Bm] underneath my [D] breath, she started the lines [G] on my face
[A] Must have been [Bm] a better lady than my knees, [D] I'm pushing her down to tie [G] my lace
She took my [A] shoe, and turned all up [D] in blue
[D]
She lit the [Am] burner on the stove [D] and offered me [Am] a pipe
[D] I thought you'd never [Am] say I loved you, she said [G] you looked like the silent type
And [D] she opened up a book [D] of poems and handed it to [Am] me
[D] Written by [Am] an Italian poet [G] in the 13th century
[A] And every one of [Bm] them words rang [D] true, felt like burning coal
[A]
Pouring out [Bm] of every page like [D] it was written in [G] my soul
Made me [A] new, tangled up [D] in blue
[C]
[D] [A] [D] I lived with him [Dm] on Montague Street, [D] in a basement down the stairs
There was music in cafes at night, [G] a revolution in the air
[D] But he got into dealing with slaves, something inside of him died
She had to sell everything she owned, [G] it just rose up inside
[A] And then when [Bm] the bottle fell, [D] I became [G] withdrawn
[A] The only thing [Bm] I knew how to do [D] was keep on keeping [G] up
And I'm a bird [A] that flew,
[C] tangled up [D] in blue
I'm
[A] [D]
[A] [D] [Am] back again, [D] I've got to get to her somehow
And all the people [Am] in New York back then, [G] they're in the gym soon enough
[D] Some are [A] mathematicians, some are Collins' wife
Don't know how it all got [Am] started, I don't [G] know what they're doing in life
[A] Me, I'm [Bm] still on the road, [D] looking for another [G] job
[A] We always did [Bm] the same, [D] but somewhere from a different point of [A] view
