Verse 1
A
G/A
Early one mornin' the sun was shinin'
A
G/A
I was layin' in bed
A
G/A
Wondrin' if she'd changed at all
D
If her hair was still red
A
G/A
Her folks they said our lives together
A
G/A
Sure was gonna be rough
A
They never did like
G/A
Mama's homemade dress
D
Papa's bank book wasn't big enough

And I was standin' on the side of the road

Rain fallin' on my shoes
E

Heading out for the east coast

Lord knows I've paid some dues
E

Gettin' through, tangled up in blue

Verse 2
A
G/A
She was married when we first met
A
G/A
Soon to be divorced bed
A
G/A
I helped her out of a jam I guess
D
But I used a little too much force
A
G/A
We drove that car as far as we could
A
G/A
Abandoned it out west
A
G/A
Split up on a dark sad night
D
Both agreeing it was best
Chorus 2
E
F#m
She turned around to look at me
A
D
As I was walkin' away
E
F#m
I heard her say over my shoulder
A
D
We'll meet again some day
E
G
D
On the avenue, tangled up in blue

Verse 3
A
G/A
I had a job in the great north woods
A
G/A
Working as a cook for a spell
A
G/A
But I never did like it all that much
D
And one day the axe just fell
A
G/A
So I drifted down to New Orleans
A
G/A
Where I was looking for to be employed
A
G/A
Workin' for a while on a fishin' boat
D
Right outside of Delacroix
Chorus 3
E
F#m
But all the while I was alone
A
D
The past was close behind
E
F#m
I seen a lot of women
A
D
But she never escaped my mind
E
G
D
And I just grew, tangled up in blue

Verse 4
A
G/A
She was workin' in a topless place
A
G/A
And I stopped in for a beer
A
G/A
I just kept lookin' at the side of her face
D
In the spotlight so clear
A
G/A
And later on as the crowd thinned out
A
G/A
I´m just about to do the same
A
G/A
She was standing there in back of my chair
D
Said to me, "Don't I know your name?"
Chorus 4
E
F#m
I muttered somethin' underneath my breath
A
D
She studied the lines on my face
E
F#m
I must admit I felt a little uneasy
A
D
When she bent down to tie the laces
E
G
D
Of my shoe, tangled up in blue

Verse 5
A
G/A
She lit a burner on the stove
A
G/A
And offered me a pipe
A
G/A
I thought you'd never say hello, she said
D
You look like the silent type
A
G/A
Then she opened up a book of poems
A
G/A
And handed it to me
A
G/A
Written by an Italian poet
D
From the thirteenth century
Chorus 5
E
F#m
And everyone of them words rang true
A
D
And glowed like burnin' coal
E
F#m
Pourin' off of every page
A
D
Like it was written in my soul
E
G
D
From me to you, tangled up in blue

Verse 6
A
G/A
I lived with them on Montague Street
A
G/A
In a basement down the stairs
A
G/A
There was music in the cafés at night
D
And revolution in the air
A
G/A
Then he started into dealing with slaves
A
G/A
And something inside of him died
A
G/A
She had to sell everything she owned
D
And froze up inside
Chorus 6
E
F#m
And when finally the bottom fell out
A
D
I became withdrawn
E
F#m
The only thing I knew how to do
A
D
Was to keep on keepin' on
E
G
D
Like a bird that flew, tangled up in blue

Verse 7
A
G/A
So now I'm goin' back again
A
G/A
I got to get to her somehow
A
G/A
All the people we used to know
D
They're an illusion to me now
A
G/A
Some are mathematicians
A
G/A
Some are carpenters' wives
A
G/A
Don't know how it all got started
D
I don't know what they're doin' with their lives
Chorus 7
E
F#m
But me, I'm still on the road
A
D
Headin' for another joint
E
F#m
We always did feel the same
A
D
E
We just saw it from a different point of view
G
D
Tangled up in blue
