R: Hey Mister Tambourine Man play a song for me

             G              C                D

   I'm not sleepy and there is no place I'm going to

    C          D               G              C

   hey Mister Tambourine Man play a song for me

           G             C                 D         G

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



              C                 D

1. Though I know that evening's empire

        G             C

   has returned into sand

    G                C

   vanished from my hand

             G               C

   left me blindly here to stand

                   D

   but still not sleepin'

       C          D

   my weariness amazes me

         G            C

   I'm branded on my feet

      G              C

   I have no one to meet

          G                C

   and my ancient empty street's

                  D

   too dead for dreamin'.

R:



2. Take me on a trip

   upon your magic swirling ship

   my senses have been stripped

   my hands can't feel to grip

   my toes to numb to step

   wait only for my bootheels

   to be wanderin'

   I'm ready to go anywhere

   I'm ready for to fade

   into my own parade

   cast your dancing spell my way

   I promise to go under it.

R:



3. Though you might hear laughing spinning swinging

   madly across the sun

   its not aimed at anyone

   its just escaping on the run

   and but for the sky there

   are no fences facin'

   and if you hear vague traces

   of skipping reels of rhyme

   to your tambourine in time

   its just a ragged clown behind

   I wouldn't pay it any mind

   its just a shadow you're seeing

   that he's chasing.

R:



4. Then take me dissappearing

   through the smoke rings of my mind

   down the foggy ruins of time

   far past the frozen leaves

   the haunted frightened trees

   out to the windy beach

   far from the twisted reach

   of crazy sorrow

   yes to dance beneath the diamond sky

   with one hand waving free

   silhouetted by the sea

   circled by the circus sands

   with all memory and fate

   driven deep beneath the waves

   let me forget about today

   until tomorrow.

R:
