 G           A               D              G 
Hey! Mister Tambourine Man, play a song for me. 
          D               G                  A 
I'm not sleepy and there ain't no place I'm going to. 
 G           A               D              G 
Hey! Mister Tambourine Man, play a song for me. 
        D             G                 A         D    
In the jingle jangle morning I'll come following you. 
 G             A              D              G      
Take me for a trip upon your magic swirling ship 
       D                  G 
Oh my senses have been stripped,  
        D                    G 
And my hands can't feel the grip,  
        D                 G 
And my toes too numb to step,  
      D           G                A 
Wait only for my boot heels to be wandering 
 
 
 
     G           A             D            G 
I'm ready to go anywhere, I'm ready for to fade 
   D            G              D                G 
Until my own parade cast your dancing spell my way, 
                 A 
I promise to go under it 
 
 
 
(Chorus)  (Intro)
