xg A D G
hey! mr . tambourine man , play a song for me ,
D G Em A
i’m not sleepy and there is no place i’m going to .
G A D G
hey! mr . tambourine man , play a song for me ,
D G Em A D
in the jingle jangle morning i’ll come followin’ you .

G A D G
take me on a trip upon your magic swirlin’ ship ,
D G D G
my senses have been stripped , my hands can’t feel to grip ,
D G D G
my toes too numb to step , wait only for my boot heels
Em A
to be wanderin’ .
G A D G
i’m ready to go anywhere , i’m ready for to fade
D G D G
into my own parade , cast your dancing spell my way ,
Em A
i promise to go under it .

G A D G
hey! mr . tambourine man , play a song for me ,
D G Em A
i’m not sleepy and there is no place i’m going to .
G A D G
hey! mr . tambourine man , play a song for me ,
D G Em A D
in the jingle jangle morning i’ll come followin’ you .

G A D G
though i know that evenin’s empire has returned into sand ,
D G
vanished from my hand ,
D G Em A
left me blindly here to stand but still not sleeping .
G A D G
my weariness amazes me , i’m branded on my feet ,
D G
i have no one to meet
D G Em A
and the ancient empty street’s too dead for dreaming .

G A D G
hey! mr . tambourine man , play a song for me ,
D G Em A
i’m not sleepy and there is no place i’m going to .
G A D G
hey! mr . tambourine man , play a song for me ,
D G Em A D
in the jingle jangle morning i’ll come followin’ you .

G A D G
hey! mr . tambourine man , play a song for me ,
D G Em A
i’m not sleepy and there is no place i’m going to .
G A D G
hey! mr . tambourine man , play a song for me ,
D G Em A D
in the jingle jangle morning i’ll come followin’ you .
