Chorus
[G]Hey! Mr. [A]Tambourine Man, [D]play a song for [G]me,
I’m not [D]sleepy and there [G]is no place I’m [A]going to.
[G]Hey! Mr. [A]Tambourine Man, [D]play a song for [G]me,
In the [D]jingle jangle [G]morning I’ll come [A]following [D]you.
Verse
[G]Though I know that evenings [A]empire has [D]returned into [G]sand,
[D]Vanished from my [G]hand,
Left me [D]blindly here to [G]stand but still not [A]sleeping.
My [G]weariness [A]amazes me, I’m [D]branded on my [G]feet,
I [D]have no one to [G]meet
And the [D]ancient empty [G]street’s too dead for [A]dreaming.

In the [D]jingle jangle [G]morning I’ll come [A]following [D]you.
Verse
[G]Take me on a [A]trip upon your [D]magic swirling [G]ship,
My [D]senses have been [G]stripped, my [D]hands can’t feel to [G]grip,
My [D]toes too numb to [G]step, wait [D]only for my [G]boot heels
To be [A]wandering.
I’m [G]ready to go [A]anywhere, I’m [D]ready for to [G]fade
[D]Into my own [G]parade, cast your [D]dancing spell my [G]way,
I promise to go [A]under it.

[G]Hey! Mr. [A]Tambourine Man, [D]play a song for [G]me,
In the [D]jingle jangle [G]morning I’ll come [A]following [D]you.
Verse
[G]Though you might hear laughing, [A]spinning, swinging [D]madly across the
[G]sun,
It’s not [D]aimed at [G]anyone, it’s just [D]escaping on the [G]run
And but [D]for the sky there [G]are no fences [A]facing.
And [G]if you hear vague [A]traces of [D]skipping reels of [G]rhyme
To your [D]tambourine in [G]time, it’s just a [D]ragged clown [G]behind,
I wouldn’t [D]pay it any [G]mind, it’s just a [D]shadow you’re
[G]Seeing that he’s [A]chasing.
Chorus

In the [D]jingle jangle [G]morning I’ll come [A]following [D]you.
Bridge
Then [G]take me [A]disappearing through the [D]smoke rings of my [G]mind,
Down the [D]foggy ruins of [G]time, far [D]past the frozen [G]leaves,
The [D]haunted, frightened [G]trees, out [D]to the windy [G]beach,
Far [D]from the twisted [G]reach of crazy [A]sorrow.
Yes, to [G]dance beneath the [A]diamond sky with [D]one hand waving [G]free,
[D]Silhouetted by the [G]sea, circled [D]by the circus [G]sands,
With all [D]memory and [G]fate driven [D]deep beneath the [G]waves,
Let me [D]forget about [G]today until [A]tomorrow.
Chorus
[G]Hey! Mr. [A]Tambourine Man, [D]play a song for [G]me,
I’m not [D]sleepy and there [G]is no place I’m [A]going to.

In the [D]jingle jangle [G]morning I’ll come [A]following [D]you.
