Intro: D D Dsus2 Dsus2 D

Chorus:

G A D G

Hey! Mr. 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! Mr. 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

My senses have been stripped,

D G D G

my hands can't feel to grip, my toes too numb to step,

D G A

wait only for my boot heels to be wandering.

G A

I'm ready to go anywhere,

D G

I'm ready for to fade

D G D G

In-to my own parade, cast your dancing spell my way,

I promise to go under it. (Chorus)
