Artist | Bob Dylan |

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 | |
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 | |
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 | |
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 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 | |
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 | |
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 | |
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 |
