https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mr._Tambourine_Man
Capo III **
Intro
Chorus
Hey! Mr. Tambourine Man, play a
song for me,
I'm not sleepy and there is no
place I'm going to.
Hey! Mr. Tambourine Man, play a
song for me,
In the jingle jangle morning
I'll come following you.
Verse
Though I know that evenings
empire has returned into sand,
Vanished from my hand,
Left me blindly here to stand
but still not sleeping.
My weariness amazes me, I'm
branded on my feet,
I have no one to meet
And the ancient empty street's
too dead for dreaming.
Chorus
Hey! Mr. Tambourine Man, play a
song for me,
I'm not sleepy and there is no
place I'm going to.
Hey! Mr. Tambourine Man, play a
song for me,
In the jingle jangle morning
I'll come following you.
Verse
Take me on a trip upon your
magic swirling ship,
My senses have been stripped, my
hands can't feel to grip,
My toes too numb to step, wait
only for my boot heels
To be wandering.
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.
Chorus
Hey! Mr. Tambourine Man, play a
song for me,
I'm not sleepy and there is no
place I'm going to.
Hey! Mr. Tambourine Man, play a
song for me,
In the jingle jangle morning
I'll come following you.
Verse
Though you might hear laughing,
spinning, swinging madly across
the sun,
It's not aimed at anyone, it's
just escaping on the run
And but for the sky there are no
fences facing.
And if you hear vague traces of
skipping reels of rhyme
To your tambourine in time, it's
just a ragged clown behind,
I wouldn't pay it any mind, it's
just a shadow you're
Seeing that he's chasing.
Chorus
Hey! Mr. Tambourine Man, play a
song for me,
I'm not sleepy and there is no
place I'm going to.
Hey! Mr. Tambourine Man, play a
song for me,
In the jingle jangle morning
I'll come following you.
Bridge
Then take me disappearing
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.
Chorus
Hey! Mr. Tambourine Man, play a
song for me,
I'm not sleepy and there is no
place I'm going to.
Hey! Mr. Tambourine Man, play a
song for me,
In the jingle jangle morning
I'll come following you.
