MR. TAMBOURINE MAN (midi)

C F G C F

Hey, Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me,

C F Dm G

I'm not sleepy and there ain't no place I'm going to.

F G C F

Hey, Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me,

C F Dm G C

in the jingle jangle morning I'll come following you.

F G C F

1. Though I know that evenings empire has returned into sand,

C F

vanished from my hand,

C F Dm G

left me blindly here to stand but still not sleeping.

F G C F

My weariness amazes me, I'm branded on my feet,

C F

I have no one to meet,

C F Dm G

and the ancient empty street's too dead for dreaming. + CHORUS

F G C F

2. Take me on a trip upon your magic swirling ship.

C F

My senses have been stripped,

C F C F

my hands can't feel to grip, my toes too numb to step,

C F Dm G

wait only for my boot heels to be wandering.

F G C F

I'm ready to go anywhere, I'm ready for to fade,

C F C F

Into my own parade. Cast your dancing spell my way,

C F Dm G

I - promise to go under it.

F G C F

Hey, Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me,

C F Dm G

I'm not sleepy and there ain't no place I'm going to.

F G C F

Hey, Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me,

C F Dm G C

in the jingle jangle morning I'll come following you.

F G

3. Though you might hear laughing, spinning, swinging

C F C F

madly across the sun, it's not aimed at anyone,

C F

it's just escaping on the run,

C F Dm G

and but for the sky there are no fences facing.

F G C F

And if you hear vague traces of skipping reels of rhyme,

C F

to your tambourine in time.

C F C F

It's just a ragged clown behind, I wouldn't pay it any mind,

C F Em G

it's just a shadow you're seeing that he's chasing. + CHORUS

F G C F

4. Take me disappearing through the smoke rings of my mind.

C F C F

down the foggy ruins of time, far past the frozen leaves,

C F C F

the haunted frightened trees, out to the windy beach,

C F Dm G

far from the twisted reach of crazy sorrow.

F G C F

Yes to dance beneath the diamond sky with one hand waving free,

C F C F

silhouetted by the sea, circled deep beneath the waves,

C F Dm G

Let me forget about today until tomorrow. + CHORUS

(Bob Dylan)
