Bob Dylan Blues

Syd Barrett

This is tablature — fret positions rather than chord names. Wide lines scroll sideways on their own, so the page never does.

C

Got the Bob Dylan blues

F

And the Bob Dylan shoes

C C 3-2-0 G

And my clothes and my hair's in a mess

G C 0-2-3 C

But you know I just couldn't care less

Gonna write me a song

'Bout what's right and what's wrong

About God and my girl an' all that

Quiet while I make like a cat

Chorus:

C F G

'Cause I'm a poet, don't you know it

C F

And the wind, you can blow it

C G

'Cause I'm Mr. Dylan, the king

G C 0-2-3 C

And I'm free as a bird on the wing

Roam from town to town

Guess, I get people down. C 3-2-0

But I don't care too much about that. C 0-2-3

'Cause my cat and my wallet are fat

Make a whole lotta dough

But I deserve it though

I got soul and good heart of gold

So I'll sing bout war and the cold

Chorus & repeat intro

Well, I sings bout dreams

and I rhymes it with seams

and it seams that my dream always means

but I can prophesy all kinds of things

Well, the guy that digs me

Should try hard to see

That he buys all my discs in a hat

And when I'm in town go see that

Chorus & repeat intro
