[Intro]
C Csus4 C Csus4
[Verse 1]
C Bb Early one morning the sun was shinin' C Bb He was layin' in bed C Bb Wond'rin' if she'd changed at all F If her hair was still red C Bb Her folks they said their lives together C Bb Sure was gonna be rough C Bb They never did like Mama's homemade dress, F Papa's bankbook wasn't big enough G Am And he was standin' at the side of the road C F Rain fallin' on his shoes G Am Heading out for the old East Coast C F G Lord knows he paid some dues, gettin' through Bb F C Csus4 C Csus4 C Csus4 C Csus4 Tangled up in blue.
[Verse 2]
C Bb She was married when they first met C Bb Soon to be divorced C Bb He helped her out of a jam I guess F But he used a little too much force C Bb And he drove that car as far as he could C Bb Abandoned it out west C Bb And they split up on a dark sad night F Both agreeing it was best G Am And she turned around to look at him C F As he was walkin' away G Am And she said "This can't be the end C F G We'll meet again some day, on the avenue, Bb F C Csus4 C Csus4 C Csus4 C Csus4 Tangled up in blue."
[Verse 3]
C Bb He had a job in the great north woods C Bb Working as a cook for a spell C Bb But he never did like it all that much F And one day the axe just fell C Bb So he drifted down to New Orleans C Bb Where he was lucky enough to be employed C Bb Workin' for a-while on a fishin' boat F Right outside of Delacroix G Am But all the while he was alone C F The past was close behind G Am He seen a lot of women C F G But she never escaped his mind and he just grew Bb F C Csus4 C Csus4 C Csus4 C Csus4 Tangled up in blue.
[Verse 4]
C Bb She was workin' in a topless place C Bb And I stopped in for a beer C Bb I just kept lookin' at the side of her face F In a spotlight so clear C Bb And later on as the crowd thinned out C Bb I's about to do the same C Bb She was standing there in back of my chair F Sayin' "Tell me what's your name?" G Am I muttered something underneath my breath C F She studied the lines on my face G Am I must admit I felt a little uneasy C F G When she bent down to tie the laces of my shoes Bb F C Csus4 C Csus4 C Csus4 C Csus4 Tangled up in blue.
[Verse 5]
C Bb She lit a burner on the stove C Bb And offered me a pipe C Bb "Thought you'd never say hello", she said F "You look like the quiet type" C Bb And she opened up a book of poems C Bb And handed it to me C Bb Written by an Italian poet F From the thirteenth century G Am And every one of them words rang true C F And glowed like burning coal G Am Pouring off of every page C F G Like it was written in my soul from me to you Bb F C Csus4 C Csus4 C Csus4 C Csus4 Tangled up in blue.
[Verse 6]
C Bb He was always in a hurry C Bb Too busy or too stoned C Bb And everything she ever planned F Just had to be postponed C Bb She thought they were successful C Bb He thought they were blessed C Bmaj7 With objects and material things F But I never was impressed G Am And when it all came crashing down C F I became withdrawn G Am The only thing I knew how to do C F G Was to keep on keeping on like a bird that flew Bb F C Csus4 C Csus4 C Csus4 C Csus4 Tangled up in blue.
[Verse 7]
C Bb So now I'm going back again C Bb Got to get to her somehow C Bb All the people we used to know F They're an illusion to me now C Bb Some are mathematicians C Bb Some are carpenters' wives C Bb Don't know how it all got started F Don't know what they're doin' with their lives G Am But me, I'm still on the road C F Heading for another joint G Am We always did feel the same C F G We just saw from a different point of view Bb F C Csus4 C Csus4 C Csus4 C Csus4 Tangled up in blue.
