Walls Of Red Wing chords by Bob Dylan

Chords with lyrics

Verse 1:
        Chord diagramG+G
Oh, the age of the inmates
  Chord diagramC majorC              Chord diagramG+G
I remember quite freely

No younger than twelve,
                    Chord diagramD MajorD
No older 'n seventeen
Chord diagramG+G
Thrown in like bandits
    Chord diagramC majorC             Chord diagramG+G
And cast off like criminals,
Chord diagramC majorC            Chord diagramG+G
Inside the walls
         Chord diagramD MajorD                Chord diagramG+G
on the grounds of Red Wing
Verse 2:
Chord diagramG+G
From the dirty old mess hall
      Chord diagramC majorC          Chord diagramG+G
You march to the brick wall

Too weary to talk
                    Chord diagramD MajorD
And too tired to sing
          Chord diagramG+G
Oh, it's all afternoon
    Chord diagramC majorC             Chord diagramG+G
You remember your home town
    Chord diagramC majorC        Chord diagramG+G
Inside the walls,
      Chord diagramD MajorD           Chord diagramG+G
The walls of Red Wing


Verse 3:
Chord diagramG+G
Oh, the gates are cast iron
            Chord diagramC majorC              Chord diagramG+G
And the walls are barbed wire

Stay far from the fence
                         Chord diagramD MajorD
With the 'lectricity stings
           Chord diagramG+G
And it's keep down your head
       Chord diagramC majorC         Chord diagramG+G
And stay in your number
    Chord diagramC majorC        Chord diagramG+G
Inside the walls
     Chord diagramD MajorD             Chord diagramG+G
The walls of Red Wing
Verse 4:
Chord diagramG+G
Oh, it's fare thee well
         Chord diagramC majorC              Chord diagramG+G
To the deep hollow dungeon

Farewell to the boardwalk
                    Chord diagramD MajorD
That takes you to the screen
Chord diagramG+G
And farewell to the minutes
    Chord diagramC majorC             Chord diagramG+G
They threaten you with it
    Chord diagramC majorC        Chord diagramG+G
Inside the walls,
      Chord diagramD MajorD           Chord diagramG+G
The walls of Red Wing


Verse 5:
Chord diagramG+G
It's many a guard
        Chord diagramC majorC           Chord diagramG+G
That stands around smilin'

Holdin' his club
                    Chord diagramD MajorD
Like he was a king
Chord diagramG+G
Hopin' to get you
    Chord diagramC majorC             Chord diagramG+G
Behind a wood pilin'
    Chord diagramC majorC        Chord diagramG+G
Inside the walls,
    Chord diagramD MajorD                Chord diagramG+G
The walls of Red Wing


Verse 6:
Chord diagramG+G
The night aimed shadows
              Chord diagramC majorC        Chord diagramG+G
Through the crossbar windows

And the wind punched hard
                          Chord diagramD MajorD
To make the wall-siding sing
Chord diagramG+G
It's many a night
         Chord diagramC majorC                Chord diagramG+G
I pretended to be a-sleepin'
    Chord diagramC majorC       Chord diagramG+G
Inside the walls
    Chord diagramC majorC             Chord diagramG+G
The walls of Red Wing


Verse 7:
Chord diagramG+G
As the rain rattled heavy
  Chord diagramC majorC              Chord diagramG+G
On the bunk-house shingles

And the sounds in the night
                    Chord diagramD MajorD
They made my ears ring
Chord diagramG+G
'Til the keys of the guards
             Chord diagramC majorC          Chord diagramG+G
Clicked the tune of the morning
 Chord diagramC majorC          Chord diagramG+G
Inside the walls
     Chord diagramD MajorD             Chord diagramG+G
The walls of Red Wing


Verse 8:
Chord diagramG+G
Oh, some of us'll end up
  Chord diagramC majorC              Chord diagramG+G
In St. Cloud Prison

And some of us'll wind up
                    Chord diagramD MajorD
To be lawyers and things
    Chord diagramG+G
And some of us'll stand up
         Chord diagramC majorC             Chord diagramG+G
To meet you on your crossroads
    Chord diagramC majorC             Chord diagramG+G
From inside the walls,
     Chord diagramD MajorD                Chord diagramG+G
The walls of Red Wing
