Hey, Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me I'm not sleepy and there is no place that I'm going to I say, hey, Mr. Tambourine Man, you're to play a song for me In my jingle-jangle morning I come following you Though you might hear your laughing, spinning, swinging Madly across the sun It's not aimed at anyone It's just escaping on the run And but for the sky, there are no fences facing Yes, and if you hear your vague traces Of skipping reels of rhyme To your tambourine in time It's just a ragged clown behind Oh, I wouldn't pay it any mind It's just a shadow you have been seeing that he's chasing Ah yes, hey, Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me I'm not sleepy and there is no place that I'm going to Yes, hey, Mr. Tambourine Man, why don't you play a song for me In my jingle-jangle morning I'll come following you Yes, and take me disappearing Through the smoke rings of my mind Down the foggy ruins of time Far past those frozen leaves Yes, and all those frightened, haunted trees Take me out to that windy beach I'd like to go far from the twisted reach of crazy sorrow Ah yes, you know that dance beneath the diamond sky With just one hand waving free Silhouetted by all those trees Circled by the circus sands With all of that memory and fate Driven deep beneath the waves I'd like to forget, hey, let me forget about today until tomorrow Ah yes, hey, hey, Mr. Tambourine Man, why don't you play a song for me You see, I'm not sleepy and there is no place that I'm going to Ah yes, hey, hey, Mr. Tambourine Man, just once more play a song for me In my jingle-jangle morning I come following you
