[Intro]
D Cadd9 D Cadd9 [a bunch of times] D Cadd9 D Cadd9 Early one morning the sun was shining I was layin’ in bed D Cadd9 G Wonderin’ if she'd changed at all If her hair still was red D Cadd9 D Cadd9 Her folks said our lives together Sure was gonna be rough D Cadd9 G They never did like momma’s homemade dress Papa’s bankbook wasn’t big enough A Bm D G And I was standing at the side of the road rain fallin’ on my shoes A Bm D G Headed out for the east coast lord knows I’ve paid some dues A A7 Cadd9 G D Cadd9 D Cadd9 Getting through Tangled up in blue
[Verse 2]
D Cadd9 D Cadd9 She was married when we first meet Soon to be divorced D Cadd9 G I helped her out of a jam I guess But I used a little too much force D Cadd9 D Cadd9 We drove that car as far as we could and abandoned it out West D Cadd9 G Split up on a dark sad night Both agreeing it was best A Bm D G She turned around amd looked at me As I was walking away A Bm D G I heard her say over my shoulder We'll meet again someday A A7 Cadd9 G D Cadd9 D Cadd9 Cadd9 D Cadd9 on the avenue Tangled up in blue
[Verse 3]
D Cadd9 D Cadd9 And I had a job in the great north woods Working as a cook for a spell D Cadd9 G But I never did like it all that much And one day the ax just fell D Cadd9 D Cadd9 So I drifted down to New Orleans I was lucky 'nough to be employed D Cadd9 G Working for a while on a fishing boat Right out by the Delacroix A Bm D G But all the while I was alone The past was close behind A Bm D G I seen a lot of women but she never escaped my mind A A7 Cadd9 G D Cadd9 D Cadd9 Cadd9 D Cadd9 And love just grew Tangled up in blue
[Verse 4]
D Cadd9 D Cadd9 She was workin' in a topless place and I stopped in for a beer D Cadd9 G Couldn't stop lookin' at the side of her face in the spot-light so clear D Cadd9 D Cadd9 Later on when the crowd thinned out and I was 'bout to do the same D Cadd9 D G She camem up behind me in the back of my chair sayin' tell me don't I know your name A Bm D G I muttered something underneath my breath She studied the lines on my face A Bm D G Must admit I felt a little uneasy When she bent down to tie the laces A A7 Cadd9 G D Cadd9 D Cadd9 Cadd9 D Cadd9 of my shoe Tangled up in blue
[Verse 5]
D Cadd9 D Cadd9 She lit a burner on the stove and offered me a pipe D Cadd9 G I thought you'd never say hello she said You look like the silent type D Cadd9 D Cadd9 Then she opened up a book of poems And handed it to me D Cadd9 G Written by an Italian poet In the thirteenth century A Bm D G And every one of them words rang true And burned like burning coal A Bm D G Pouring out of every page Like it was written in my soul A A7 Cadd9 G D Cadd9 D Cadd9 Cadd9 D Cadd9 from me to you Tangled up in bl----ue yeaaah mama
[Verse 6]
D Cadd9 D Cadd9 I lived with them on Montague Street In a basement down the stairs D Cadd9 G There was music in cafes at night And revolution in the air D Cadd9 D Cadd9 But he got into dealing with slaves And something inside of him died D Cadd9 G She had to sell everything she owned And just froze up inside A Bm D G And then when the bottom fell out I became withdrawn A Bm D G The only thing I knew how to do Was to keep on keeping on A A7 Cadd9 G D Cadd9 D Cadd9 Cadd9 D Cadd9 like a bird that flew Tangled up in bl---ue
[Verse 7]
D Cadd9 D Cadd9 Oh, and now I'm going back again I got to get her somehow D Cadd9 G And all the people we knew back then, They're an illusion to me now D Cadd9 D Cadd9 Some were mathematicians Some were carpenter's wives D Cadd9 G Don't know how it all got started I don't know what they're doing with their lives A Bm D G But me I'm still on the road Looking for another joint A Bm D G We always did feel the same We just saw it from a different point A A7 Cadd9 G D Cadd9 D Cadd9 of view Tangled up in Bl---ue [assorted vocalizations]
