Mr. Tambourine Man
guitar tabs lyrics
Written by Bob Dylan. This is legend, Stevie Wonder's version.
Like Glen Campbell, Stevie Wonder recorded a version of 'Mr. Tambourine Man'
sounding exactly like The Byrds' version except Stevie Wonder uses words, Glen Campbell doesn't.
Intro:
D G A
Chorus:
G A D G
Hey! Mister 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! Mister Tambourine Man, play a song for me.
D G Em A D G D
In the jingle jangle morning I'll come following you.
G A D G
Though I know that evenin's empire has returned into the sand.
D G D G
Vanished from my hand, left me blindly here to stand
Em A
but still not sleeping!
G A D G D G
My weariness amazes me, I'm branded on my feet I have no one to meet.
D G Em A
And the ancient empty street's too dead for dreaming.
Chorus
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 the grip,
Em
my toes too numb to step, wait only for my boot heels
A
to be wandering
G A D G D G
I'm ready to go anywhere, I'm ready for to fade
D G Em A
Into my own parade cast your dancing spell my way,
D G Em A
I promise to go under it
Chorus
G A D G
Though you might hear laughin' spinnin' swingin' madly across the sun
D G D G
It's not aimed at anyone, it's just escapin' on the run
Em
And but for the sky there are no fences facin'
A
And if you hear vague traces of skippin' reels of rhyme
G A D G D G
To your tambourine in time, it's just a ragged clown behind
D G Em A
I wouldn't pay it any mind, it's just a shadow you're
D G Em A
seein' that he's chasing
Chorus
G A D G
Then take me dissapearin' through the smoke rings of my mind
D G D G
Down the foggy ruins of time, far past the frozen leaves
Em
The haunted, frightended trees out to the windy beach
A
Far from the twisted reach of crazy sorrow
G A D G D G
Yes, to dance beneath the diamond sky with one hand wavin' free
D G Em A
Silhouetted by the sea, circled by the circus sands
D G Em A
With all memory and fate drive deep beneath the waves
D G Em A
Let me forget about today until tomorrow
Enjoy!
