Hey! Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me,
I'm not sleepy and there is no place I'm going to.
Hey! Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me,
In the jingle jangle morning I'll come followin' you.

Though I know that evenin's empire has returned into sand,
Vanished from my hand,
Left me blindly here to stand but still not sleeping.
My weariness amazes me, I'm branded on my feet,
I have no one to meet
And the ancient empty street's too dead for dreaming.


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


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


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

The reason why I can't say
Gotta let you go babe and right away
After what you did I can't stay on
And I'll probably feel a whole lot better when you're gone

Baby for a long time you had me believe
You said your love was all mine and that's the way it would be
I didn't know that you were putting me on
And I'll probably feel a whole lot better when you're gone
Oh when you're gone

I got to say that it's not like before
And I'm not gonna play your game anymore
After what you did I can't stay on
And I'll probably feel a whole lot better when you're gone
Oh when you're gone
Oh when you're gone
Oh when you're gone

Gypsy gal, the hands of Harlem
Cannot hold you to its heat.
Your temperature's too hot for taming,
Your flaming feet are burning up the street.
I am homeless, come and take me
Into reach of your rattling drums.
I gotta know, babe, about my fortune
Down along my restless paths.

Gypsy gal, you got me swallowed.
I have fallen far beneath
Your pearly eyes, so fast an' slashing,
An' your flashing diamond teeth.
The night is pitch black, come an' make my
Pale face fit into place, ah, please!
I gotta know, babe, I'm nearly drowning
Take me to my lifelines trace.

I been wond'rin' all about me
Ever since I seen you there.
On the cliffs of your wildcat charms I'm riding,
I know I'm 'round you but I don't know where.
You have slayed me, you have made me,
I got to laugh at this off my heel.
I got to know, babe, will you surround me
So I can know if I'm really real.

Oh you know it makes me sad to see you feel so bad
But it's happened to you many times before
But if you will come with me then girl you will see
That you won't have to cry anymore

There's no reason to feel blue because of what he says to you
And I wouldn't want to see you hurt no more
I could never do you wrong 'cause my love for you's too strong
And you won't have to cry anymore

Oh I saw you there with tears in your eyes
Because he told you so many many lies
Oh you know it isn't right to put yourself up tight
By thinking 'bout the things he's done before

Just trust the love in me
And girl you will see
That you won't have to cry
No you won't have to cry
No you won't have to cry anymore

Daytime just makes me feel lonely
At night I can only dream about you
Girl you're on my mind nearly all of the time
It's so hard being here without you

Words in my head keep repeating things that you said
Wen I was with you
And I wonder is it true do you feel the same way too
It's so hard being here without you, being here without you

Though I know it won't last I'll see you some day
It seems as though that the day will come never
But there's one thing I'll swear though you're far away
I'll be thinking about you forever

The streets that I walk on depress me
The ones that were happy when I was with you
Still with all the friends I know and with all the things I do
It's so hard being here without you being here without you

Oh what will you give me say the sad bells of Rhymney
Is there hope for the future say the brown bells of Merthyr
Who made the mine owner say the black bells of Rhonda
And who killed the miner say the grim bells of Blaina
Throw the vandels in court say the bells of Newport
All would be well if if if if cry the green bells of Cardiff
Why so worried sisters why sang the silver bells of Wye
And what will you give me say the sad bells of Rhymney

Oh what will you give me say the sad bells of Rhymney
Is there hope for the future say the brown bells of Merthyr
Who made the mine owner say the black bells of Rhonda
And who killed the miner say the grim bells of Blaina

I ain't lookin' to compete with you,
Beat or cheat or mistreat you,
Simplify you, classify you,
Deny, defy or crucify you.
All I really want to do
Is, baby, be friends with you.

No, and I ain't lookin' to fight with you,
Frighten you or tighten you,
Drag you down or bring you down,
Chain you down or bring you down.
All I really want to do
Is, baby, be friends with you.

I ain't lookin' to block you up
Shock or knock or lock you up,
Analyze you, categorize you,
Finalize you or advertise you.
All I really want to do
Is, baby, be friends with you.

I don't want to fake you out,
Take or shake or forsake you out,
I ain't lookin' for you to feel like me,
See like me or be like me.
I don't want to meet your kin,
Make you spin or do you in,
Or select you or dissect you,
Or inspect you or reject you.
All I really want to do
Is, baby, be friends with you.

I'd like to love you with all of my heart
You've had me on your trip right from the start
And when you looked at me with love in your eyes
I knew I'd want you, oh yeah.

I'd like to hold you if you want me to
I've found somethin' new girl just by lookin' at you
And it's in your smile and it's in the way
I Knew I'd want you, oh yeah

I meet so many people
I feel I don't know
But I felt so close to you
When you said hello

I'd like to love you and together we'd find
The place we've been looking for where we'd have peace of mind
And there we'll be happy and there I'll know why
I knew I'd want you, oh yeah, oh yeah

It's no use saying you're gonna stay
If you don't want to be all mine
I haven't got room for somebody who
Is gonna hurt me all the time
Somebody who couldn't see
All the love I was trying to give
It's no use saying you're gonna stay
If you don't want our love to live.
It's no use keeping you around
If you don't want me all the way
There's somebody new who can be found
And I'll find her someday
And she will be everything
All the love she has she'll want to give
It's no use saying you're gonna stay
If you don't want our love to live.
If you don't, oh I'd love to leave
If you don't, oh I'd love to leave
Oh I should be good to you but I can't cause before
I was really true to you but you only hurt me more

Don't doubt yourself,
Let your feet stand up for your beliefs,
I know what's running through your mind
Think you ought to capture time
Make love, walk the straight and narrow, oh oh
Don't doubt yourself,
Let what's inside be your guide, you know darn well
For all the wrong that's been done to you
It's making you prettier, so don't be blue
Life you're liing what you've been through you're lucky oh oh
Don't doubt yourself when
Daylight fades and darkness begins
It only comes to show you that
You're the one who knows where it's at
The rest, who think they've got it pat, know nothing oh oh
Don't doubt yourself cause
At the end of your words no were applause
The truth's proved to be found
Hard to take first time around
So don't you worry it's gonna be alright oh oh

Far between sundown's finish and midnight's broken toll
We ducked inside the doorway, thunder crashing
As majestic bells of bolts, struck shadows in the sounds
Seeming to be the chimes of freedom flashing

Flashing for the warriors, whose strength is not to fight
Flashing for the refugees on the unarmed road of flight
And for each and every underdog soldier in the night
We gazed upon the chimes of freedom flashing

Even though a cloud's white curtain in a far off corner flashed
And the hypnotic splattered mist was slowly lifting
Electric light still struck like arrows, fired but for the ones
Condemned to drift or else be kept from drifting

Starry eyed and laughing, as I recall when we were caught
Trapped by no track of hours for they hanged suspended
And we listened one last time, and we watched with one last look
Spellbound and swallowed till the tolling ended

Tolling for the aching ones whose wounds cannot be nursed
For the countless confused, accused, misused, srung-out ones and worse
And for every hung-up person in the whole wide universe
We gazed upon the chimes of freedom flashing

We'll meet again don't know where don't know when
But I know we'll meet again some sunny day
Keep smiling true just like you always do
Till the blue skies make the dark clouds fade away
Some sunny day hey hey hey
Some sunny day hey hey hey
Some sunny day hey hey hey
We'll meet again don't know where don't know when
But I know we'll meet again some sunny day
(repeat first verse)
(repeat second verse)

I was really good to her but how she broke my heart
She looked so young and she seemed so sweet but I was wrong from the start
She has a way about her that makes her run around
Now I wonder if she'll ever wanna settle down

Oh oh, oh oh

I waited so impatiently it didn't do my mind any good
I never thought she would set me free I did all the things that I should
Then all at once I looked for her but she could not be found
Now I wonder if she'll ever wanna settle down

Oh oh, oh oh

I didn't think that I
Could wait for her very long
But I didn't realize
My love for her was so strong

She might be going from heart to heart she might be putting them down
The way she took it all apart made me the laugh of the town
She has a way about her that makes her run around
Now I wonder if she'll ever wanna settle down

Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh oh

The reason why I can't say
Gotta let you go babe and right away
After what you did I can't stay on
And I'll probably feel a whole lot better when you're gone

Baby for a long time you had me believe
You said your love was all mine and that's the way it would be
I didn't know that you were putting me on
And I'll probably feel a whole lot better when you're gone
Oh when you're gone

I got to say that it's not like before
And I'm not gonna play your game anymore
After what you did I can't stay on
And I'll probably feel a whole lot better when you're gone
Oh when you're gone
Oh when you're gone
Oh when you're gone

It's no use use saying your gonna stay if you don't want to be all mine
