[Verse]
F G C F
Hey! Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me,
C F G Gsus4 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 Csus4 C Csus2 C
In the jingle jangle morning I'll come followin' you.
F G C F
Though I know that evenin's empire has returned into sand,
C F
Vanished from my hand,
C F G Gsus4 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 Gsus4 G
And the ancient empty street's too dead for dreaming.
[Chorus]
F G C F
Hey! Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me,
C F G Gsus4 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 Csus4 C Csus2 C
In the jingle jangle morning I'll come followin' you.
[Verse]
F G C F
Take me on a trip upon your magic swirlin' 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.
[Chorus]
F G C F
Hey! Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me,
C F G Gsus4 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 Csus4 C Csus2 C
In the jingle jangle morning I'll come followin' you.
[Verse]
F G C F
Though you might hear laughin', spinnin', swingin' madly across the sun,
C F C F
It's not aimed at anyone, it's just escapin' on the run
C F G
And but for the sky there are no fences facin'.
F G C F
And if you hear vague traces of skippin' reels of rhyme
C F C F
To your tambourine in time, it's just a ragged clown behind,
C F C F
I wouldn't pay it any mind, it's just a shadow you're seein'
G
That he's chasing.
[Chorus]
F G C F
Hey! Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me,
C F G Gsus4 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 Csus4 C Csus2 C
In the jingle jangle morning I'll come followin' you.

[Verse]
F G C F
Then take me disappearin' 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 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 tomorrow.
[Chorus]
F G C F
Hey! Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me,
C F G Gsus4 G
I'm not sleepy and there is no place I'm going to.
