Tablature Bob Dylan – Mr. Tambourine Man

Refrain :
F        G               C               F
Hey! Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me,
         C               F               G
I'm not sleepy and there is no place I'm going to.
F        G               C               F
Hey! Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me,
       C              F                G         C
In the jingle-jangle morning I'll come followin' you.

Couplet 1 :
         F                 G          C             F
Though I know the evenings empire has returned into sand
C                 F
Vanished from my hand
        C                F                  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                   G
And the ancient empty streets too dead for dreaming

Couplet 2 :
F             G             C              F
Take me on a trip upon your magic swirling ship
   C                F            C                   F
My senses have been stripped, my hands can't feel to grip
   C                F          C                F
My toes too numb to step, wait only for my boot heels
      G
To be wanderin'
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
                G
I promise to go under it

Couplet 3 :
           F                     G
Though you might hear laughing, spinning
         C                F
Swinging madly across the sun,
         C           F              C               F
It's not aimed at anyone, it's just escaping on the run
        C                  F             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                 C            F
To your tambourine in time, it's just a ragged clown behind
           C           F                C
I wouldn't pay it any mind, it's just a shadow you're
F                G
Seeing that he's chasing

Couplet 4 :
     F            G                   C                 F
Then 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
Ther haunted frightened trees, out to the windy beach
    C                F              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 by the circus sands
         C          F            C                F
With all memory and fate, driven deep beneath the waves,
          C         F           G
Let me forget about today until tommorow
