Refr. 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 mornin' I'll come followin' you.

1. Tho' I know that evenin's empire has returned into sand, vanished from my hand, left me blindly here to stand but still not sleeping.
|G |A |D |G |D |G |D |G Em |A |A
My weariness amazes me, I'm branded on my feet. I have noone to meet, and the ancient empty street's too dead for dreamin'.
Refr.

2. Take me on a trip upon your magic swirlin' ship. My senses have been stripped.
|D |G |D |G |D |G Em |A |A
My hands can't feel to grip. My toes too numb to step, wait only for my heels to be wanderin'.
|G |A |D |G |D |G |D |G Em |A |A
I'm ready to go anywhere, I'm ready for to fade into my own parade. Cast your dancin' spell my way,I promise to go under it.
Refr.
3. 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 seeing that he's chasin'.
Refr.
4. 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 the windy beach, far from the twisted reach of crazy sorrow.
yes, to dance beneath the diamond sky with one hand wavin' 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.
Refr.
