Tom : D
Intro: D
[Refrão]
G A D G
Hey Mr Tambourine Man play a song for me
D A
I'm not sleepy and there ain't no place I'm going to
G A D G
Hey Mr. Tambourine Man play a song for me
D G A D
In the jingle jangle morning I'll come following you
[Próxima Parte]
G A D G
Though I know that evenings empire has returned into sand
D G
Vanished from my hand
D G 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 A
And the ancient empty street's too dead for dreaming
[Refrão] (repetir)
[Próxima Parte]
G A D G
Take me on a trip upon your magic swirling ship
D G D G
My senses have been stripped, may hands can't feel to grip
D G D G A
My toes too numb to step, wait only for my bootheels to be wandering
G A D G D G
I'm ready to go anywhere I'm ready for to fade, into my own parade
D G Bm A
Cast your dancing spell my way I promise to go under it
[Refrão] (repetir)
[Próxima Parte]
Interlude: ( G A D G D G D G D G D G D G A D G D G D G D G A D )
G A D G
Though you might hear laughing spinning swinging madly across the sun
D G D G
It's not aimed at anyone, it's just escaping on the run
D G A
And but for the sky there are no fences facing
G A D G
And if you hear vague traces of skipping reels of rhyme
D G D G
To your tambourine in time, it's just a ragged clown behind
D G
I wouldn't pay it any mind
D G A
It's just a shadow you're seeing that he's chasing
[Refrão] (repetir)
[Próxima Parte]
G A D G
And take me disappearing through the smoke rings of my mind
D G D G
Down the foggy ruins of time far past the frozen leaves
D G D G
The haunted frightened trees, out to the windy bench
D G Bm A
Far from the twisted reach of crazy sorrow
G A D G
Yes to dance beneath the diamond sky with one hand waving free
D G D G
Silhouetted by the sea circled by the circus sands
D G D G
With all memory and fate driven deep beneath the waves
D G A
Let me forget about today until tomorrow
[Refrão] (repetir)
