    [Chorus]
    
    G        A               D               G
    Hey! Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me,
            D                G               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                 A         D
    In the jingle jangle morning I'll come following you.  
    
    [Verse]
    
    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.
    
    [Chorus]
    
    G        A               D               G
    Hey! Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me,
            D                G               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                 A         D
    In the jingle jangle morning I'll come following you.
    
    [Verse]
    
    G            A              D              G
    Take me on a trip upon your magic swirling 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
          A
    To be wandering.
        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,
                    A
    I promise to go under it.
    
    [Chorus]
    
    G        A               D               G
    Hey! Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me,
            D                G               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                 A         D
    In the jingle jangle morning I'll come following you.
    
    [Verse]
    
    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                 D
    I wouldn't pay it any mind, it's just a shadow you're
    G                A
    Seeing that he's chasing.
    
    [Chorus]
    
    G        A               D               G
    Hey! Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me,
            D                G               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                 A         D
    In the jingle jangle morning I'll come following you.
    
    [Bridge]
    
         G            A                   D                 G
    Then 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 beach,
        D                G              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.
    
    [Chorus]
    
    G        A               D               G
    Hey! Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me,
            D                G               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                 A         D
    In the jingle jangle morning I'll come following you.
