Bob Dylan – Shes Your Lover Now (Guitar)

C                      Dm
The pawnbroker he just roared

      Em                F
And it was good for the landlord

C      Dm    C      F  G
To see me so crazy,      Wasn't it?

C             Dm
Both were so glad

          Em                 F
To see me lose everything I had

C    Dm          C          F
Pain sure brings out the best

 G
in people, now, doesn't it?

Em
Why didn't you

      Dm
just leave me If you didn't want to stay?

Em                                 Dm                     F
Why'd you have to treat me so bad? Did it

  G
have to be that way?

G   F   C     Dm     C
Now you stand here asking me

                  F              G
If something happened, I got to say

     Am                                G
And you, I see you're still with her, well

       Am                                                 G          G
That's fine 'cause she's comin' on so strange,

F  Em  Dm
can't you tell?

C           Dm        C      F
I think you better explain

                C         Dm       C           F
What she should really do with her iron chain

    C      Dm           C            F      G
I'd do it before, but I just can't remember how

Am          G
Talk to her

F          Am     G
You're her lover now

       C              Dm
Yes I, I've already assumed

        Em                 F
That we weren't in the felony room

    C  Dm      C          F                 G
But I ain't the judge, you don't have to be nice to me

     C               Dm
Will you please tell that

        Em                   F
To your friend with the cowboy hat

     C      Dm       C        F        G
He keeps on sayin' everything twice to me

Em
You know I was straight with you

Dm
You know I never tried to change you in any way

Em
You know if you didn't want to be with me

                Dm         F    G
That you didn't have to stay.

G   F   C     Dm     C                    F
Now you stand here sayin' you forgive me, well

            G
What can I say?

     Am
And you, you just sit around and ask for

G
ashtrays,well, can't you reach?

Am                                                    G         G
I see you kiss her on the cheek everytime

 F  Em  Dm
she gives a speech

         C           Dm       C       F
With her picture books of the pyramid

      C      Dm   C          F
And snapshots of billy the kid

        C   Dm           C            F         G
They're all nice but I refuse to stand here and bow

Am              G
Explain it to her

F          Am     G
You're her lover now

C                  Dm
And everybody that cares

           Em                  F
I see them goin' up the castle stairs

    C   Dm  C      F     G
But I'm not up in your castle, honey

C        Dm
Can't recall

Em               F
San Francisco at all

C Dm    C         F     G
I can't even remember El Paso, uh , honey

Em
You know you never had to be faithful

Dm
I never expect you to grieve

Em
Oh, why was it so hard to you

                      Dm                F        G
If you didn't want to be there, just to leave?

G   F   C     Dm
Now you stand here

          C       F           G
With you finger's goin' up my sleeve

    Am                         G
And you, just what you do, anyway?

    Am                                                         G        G
What are you, some kind of moose, Ain't there

F Em Dm
nothing you can say?

          C        Dm           C     F
She'll be standin' on the bar soon

      C      Dm           C     F
With a fish head and a harpoon

        C   Dm     C        F      G
An' a fake beard plastered on her brow

Am                   G
You'd better do something

F          Am     G
You're her lover now

C                      Dm
Why must I fall for this madness?

Em                    F
Do I look like Charles Atlas?

       C    Dm    C      F        G
Do you think I still got what you still got, honey?

C                   Dm
Her voice is really warm

Em
(Oh, right)
