Guitar chords with lyrics
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:
