NOTE: I stole the lyrics from the lyrics database, thanks.  This song is 
perhaps not meant to be played on the guitar since itbased song, but 
these are the chords anyways.  Maybe itmaybe not.  Also, the fingering of 
some of the above chords may be 
difficult.  Play only part of the chord if you can't reach the whole
thing, but the important thing is to keep the bass line going down.

(from Highway 61 Revisited, 1965)
