Now for the anticipated chords and lyrics

[B]Tweedle Dum and Tweedle Dee

They're throwing knives into the trees

Two big bags of dead mans bones

Got their noses to the grindstones

[E]Living in the land of Nod

[B]Trusting their fate to the hands of God

[E]They pass by so silently

[B]Tweedle Dum and tweedle Dee

Well they are going to the country they're going to retire

They're taking a street car named desire

Looking at the window with a pecan pie

Lots of thingd they'd like they'd never buy

Neither one want to turn and run

And making a voyage to the sun

his masters voice is calling me

Said tweedle dum to tweedle dee

Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum

All that and more and then some

They walk among the stately trees

They know the secrets of the breeze

Tweedle dee said to tweedle dum

Your presence is obnoxious to me

Feel like a baby sitting on a womans knee

Tweedle Dum and Tweedle Dee

Well the rains beating down on a window pane

I've got love for you and its all in vain

Brains in a pot, They're beginning to boil

They're dripping with Garlic and Olive Oil

Tweedle Dums on his hands and knees

Saying Throw me something mister, please

Whats good for you is good for me

Said Tweedle Dum to Tweedle Dee

Well they're living in a happy harmony

Tweedle Dum and Tweedle Dee

They're one day older and one day short

They got a paid permit and a police escort

They're lying low and They're making hay

They seem determined to go all the way

They run a brick and tile company

Tweedle Dum and Tweedle Dee

Well a childish dream is a deathless need

And a noble truth is a sacred creed

My pretty baby shes looking around

Shes wearing a multi thousand dollar gown

Tweedle Dee is a low down sorry old man

Tweedle Dum he'll stab you where you stand

I've had too much of your company

Said Tweedle Dum to Tweedle Dee

Well brothers and sisters that about does it but i shall post more dylan

tabs in the future so email me questions comments to
