Intro riff: [C] [G7] [C]

Chorus:

[F] Hey Mr [G7] Tambourine Man [C] play a song for [F] me

I'm not [C] sleepy and there [F] ain’t no [Dm] place I'm [G7] going to

[F] Hey Mr [G7] Tambourine Man [C] play a song for [F] me

In the [C] jingle jangle [F] morning I'll come [G7] followin' [C] you

[F] Take me for a [G7] trip upon your [C] magic swirlin' [F] ship

All my [C] senses have been [F] stripped and my [C] hands can't feel to [F] grip

And my [C] toes too numb to [F] step

Wait [C] only for my [Dm] boot heels to be [G7] wanderin'

I'm [F] ready to go [G7] anywhere I'm [C] ready for to [F] fade

In[C]to my own pa[F]rade cast your [C] dancing spell my [F] way

I [Dm] promise to go [G7] under it

Chorus

Though I [F] know that evenin's [G7] empire [C] has returned into [F] sand

[C] Vanished from my [F] hand

Left me [C] blindly here to [Dm] stand but still not [G7] sleeping

My [F] weariness a[G7]mazes me I'm [C] branded on my [F] feet

I [C] have no one to [F] meet

And the [C] ancient empty [Dm] street's too dead for [G7] dreaming

Chorus

Though you [F] might hear laughin' [G7] spinnin’

Swingin' [C] madly across the [F] sun

It's not [C] aimed at any[F]one it's just es[C]capin' on the [F] run

And but [C] for the sky there [Dm] are no fences [G7] facin'

And [F] if you hear vague [G7] traces of [C] skippin' reels of [F] rhyme

To your [C] tambourine in [F] time it's just a [C] ragged clown be[F]hind

I wouldn't [C] pay it any [F] mind it's just a [C] shadow

You're [Dm] seein' that he's [G7] chasing

Chorus …….Repeat intro
