[Verse]
B C# F# B
Hey! Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me,
F# B C# C#sus4 C#
I'm not sleepy and there is no place I'm going to.
B C# F# B
Hey! Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me,
F# B C# F# F#sus4 F# F#sus2 F#
In the jingle jangle morning I'll come followin' you.
B C# F# B
Though I know that evenin's empire has returned into sand,
F# B
Vanished from my hand,
F# B C# C#sus4 C#
Left me blindly here to stand but still not sleeping.
B C# F# B
My weariness amazes me, I'm branded on my feet,
F# B
I have no one to meet
F# B C# C#sus4 C#
And the ancient empty street's too dead for dreaming.
[Chorus]
B C# F# B
Hey! Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me,
F# B C# C#sus4 C#
I'm not sleepy and there is no place I'm going to.
B C# F# B
Hey! Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me,
F# B C# F# F#sus4 F# F#sus2 F#
In the jingle jangle morning I'll come followin' you.
[Verse]
B C# F# B
Take me on a trip upon your magic swirlin' ship,
F# B F# B
My senses have been stripped, my hands can't feel to grip,
F# B F# B
My toes too numb to step, wait only for my boot heels
C#
To be wanderin'.
B C# F# B
I'm ready to go anywhere, I'm ready for to fade
F# B F# B
Into my own parade, cast your dancing spell my way,
C#
I promise to go under it.
[Chorus]
B C# F# B
Hey! Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me,
F# B C# C#sus4 C#
I'm not sleepy and there is no place I'm going to.
B C# F# B
Hey! Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me,
F# B C# F# F#sus4 F# F#sus2 F#
In the jingle jangle morning I'll come followin' you.
[Verse]
B C# F# B
Though you might hear laughin', spinnin', swingin' madly across the sun,
F# B F# B
It's not aimed at anyone, it's just escapin' on the run
F# B C#
And but for the sky there are no fences facin'.
B C# F# B
And if you hear vague traces of skippin' reels of rhyme
F# B F# B
To your tambourine in time, it's just a ragged clown behind,
F# B F# B
I wouldn't pay it any mind, it's just a shadow you're seein'
C#
That he's chasing.
[Chorus]
B C# F# B
Hey! Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me,
F# B C# C#sus4 C#
I'm not sleepy and there is no place I'm going to.
B C# F# B
Hey! Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me,
F# B C# F# F#sus4 F# F#sus2 F#
In the jingle jangle morning I'll come followin' you.

[Verse]
B C# F# B
Then take me disappearin' through the smoke rings of my mind,
F# B F# B
Down the foggy ruins of time, far past the frozen leaves,
F# B F# B
The haunted, frightened trees, out to the windy beach,
F# B C#
Far from the twisted reach of crazy sorrow.
B C# F# B
Yes, to dance beneath the diamond sky with one hand waving free,
F# B F# B
Silhouetted by the sea, circled by the circus sands,
F# B F# B
With all memory and fate driven deep beneath the waves,
F# B C#
Let me forget about today until tomorrow.
[Chorus]
B C# F# B
Hey! Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me,
F# B C# C#sus4 C#
I'm not sleepy and there is no place I'm going to.

Hey! Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me,
F# B C# F# F#sus4 F# F#sus2 F#
In the jingle jangle morning I'll come followin' you.
