[G]Hey! [A]Mr. Tambourine [D]Man, play a [G]song for me,

[G]Hey! [A]Mr. Tambourine [D]Man, play a [G]song for me,
[D]In the jingle jangle [G]morning I'll come followin' [A]you. [D] [Dsus4] [D] [Dsus2] [D]
[G]Though I know that [A]evenin's empire has [D]returned into [G]sand,
[D]Vanished from my [G]hand,
[D]Left me blindly here to [G]stand but still not [A]sleeping. [Asus4] [A]
[G]My weariness amazes [A]me, I'm branded on my [D]feet, [G]
[D]I have no one to [G]meet
[D]And the ancient empty [G]street's too dead for [A]dreaming. [Asus4] [A]

Verse 2
[G]Take me on a trip [A]upon your magic [D]swirlin' ship, [G]
[D]My senses have been [G]stripped, my hands can't feel to [G]grip,
[D]My toes too numb to [G]step, wait only for my boot [G]heels
[A]To be wanderin'.
[G]I'm ready to go [A]anywhere, I'm ready for to [D]fade [G]
[D]Into my own [G]parade, cast your dancing [D]spell my [G]way,
[A]I promise to go under it.

Verse 3
[G]Though you might hear [A]laughin', spinnin', swingin' [D]madly across the [G]sun,
[D]It's not aimed at [G]anyone, it's just escapin' on the [G]run
[D]And but for the sky [G]there are no fences [A]facin'.
[G]And if you hear vague [A]traces of skippin' reels of [D]rhyme [G]
[D]To your tambourine in [G]time, it's just a ragged [D]clown [G]behind,
[D]I wouldn't pay it any [G]mind, it's just a [D]shadow you're [G]seein'
[A]That he's chasing.

Verse 4
[G]Then take me disappearin' [A]through the smoke rings of my [D]mind, [G]
[D]Down the foggy ruins [G]of time, far past the frozen [G]leaves,
[D]The haunted, frightened [G]trees, out to the windy [D]beach, [G]
[D]Far from the twisted [G]reach of crazy [A]sorrow.
[G]Yes, to dance beneath the [A]diamond sky with one hand [D]waving [G]free,
[D]Silhouetted by the [G]sea, circled by the circus [D]sands, [G]
[D]With all memory and [G]fate driven deep beneath the [D]waves, [G]
[D]Let me forget about [G]today until [A]tomorrow.
Chorus
