Every Grain Of Sand Ukulele by Bob Dylan

Chords with lyrics

Intro:
| Eb | Ab | Eb | Ab |
| Eb | Ab | Eb | Ab |

Verse:
    Eb      Ab       Eb         Ab
In the time of my confession, in the hour of my deepest need
     Eb       Ab      Bb     Bbsus4 Bb
When the pool of tears beneath my feet flood every newborn seed
     Eb       Ab  Eb        Ab
There's a dyin' voice within me reaching out somewhere,
Eb       Ab        Bb   Bbsus4 Bb
Toiling in the danger and in the morals of despair.

Bridge:
   Bb      Bb7      Eb       Bb
Don't have the inclination to look back on any mistake,
   Bb      Bb7         Eb        | Bb  Ab |
Like Cain, I now behold this chain of events that I must break.

chorus:
    Eb     Ab      Eb        Ab
In the fury of the moment I can see the Master's hand
  Eb       Ab      Bb  Bb7sus4 | Eb | % |
In every leaf that trembles, in every grain of sand.
Verse:
    Eb      Ab        Eb       Ab
Oh, the flowers of indulgence and the weeds of yesteryear,
   Eb          Ab          Bb     Bbsus4  Bb
Like criminals, they have choked the breath of conscience and good cheer.
  Eb       Ab        Eb        Ab
The sun beat down upon the steps of time to light the way
  Eb        Ab        Bb   Bbsus4 Bb
To ease the pain of idleness and the memory of decay.

Bridge:
 Bb      Bb7      Eb       Bb
I gaze into the doorway of temptation's angry flame
  Bb      Bb7       Eb       | Bb  Ab |
And every time I pass that way, I always hear my name.

Chorus:
   Eb      Ab    Eb      Ab
Then onward in my journey I come to understand
   Eb      Ab      Bb  Bb7sus4 | Eb | % |
That every hair is numbered like every grain of sand.

Solo:
= Verse Bridge - Chorus
| Eb | Ab | Eb | Ab |
| Eb | Ab | Bb Bbsus4 | Bb |
| Eb | Ab | Eb | Ab |
| Eb | Ab | Bb Bbsus4 | Bb |
| Bb | Bb7 | Eb | Bb |
| Bb | Bb7 | Eb | Bb Ab |
| Eb | Ab | Eb | Ab |
| Eb | Ab | Bb Bb7sus4 | Eb | % |

Verse:
    Eb        Ab      Eb      Ab
I have gone from rags to riches in the sorrow of the night
    Eb      Ab           Bb7    Bb7sus4 Bb7
In the violence of a summer's dream, in the chill of a wintry light,
    Eb       Ab     Eb     Ab
In the bitter dance of loneliness fading into space,
    Eb        Ab      Bb7   Bb7sus4 Bb7
In the broken mirror of innocence on each forgotten face.

Bridge:
 Bb        Bb7        Eb      Bb
I hear the ancient footsteps like the motion of the sea
  Bb          Bb7         Eb      | Bb  Ab |
Sometimes I turn, there's someone there, other times it's only me.

Chorus:
   Eb       Ab       Eb     Ab
I am hanging in the balance of the reality of man
   Eb      Ab      Bb  Bb7sus4 | Eb | % |
Like every sparrow falling, like every grain of sand.

Solo:
= Verse Bridge - Chorus
| Eb | Ab | Eb | Ab |
| Eb | Ab | Bb Bbsus4 | Bb |
| Eb | Ab | Eb | Ab |
| Eb | Ab | Bb Bbsus4 | Bb |
| Bb | Bb7 | Eb | Bb |
| Bb | Bb7 | Eb | Bb Ab |
| Eb | Ab | Eb | Ab |
| Eb | Ab | Bb7  Eb
