Verse 1
(G major) Early
one mornin' the sun (Gsus4) was shinin' (F major)
(G major) I was layin' in bed (Gsus4)
(G major) Wondrin' if she'd changed (Gsus4) at all
If her (C major) hair was still red
(G major) Her folks they said our lives (Gsus4) together
(F major) Sure (G major) was gonna be rough (Gsus4)
They (G major) never did like
Mama's (Gsus4) homemade dress
(F major) Papa's (C major) bank book wasn't big enough
And (D major) I was standin' on the
(E minor) side of the road
Rain (G major) fallin' on my shoes (C major)
(D major) Heading out for the east (E minor) coast
Lord (G major) knows I've paid some dues (C major)
Gettin' through (D major)
(F major) Tangled up in blue (G major)

Verse 2
(Gsus4)
(G major) She was married when we (F major) first met
(G major) Soon to be divorced (F major)
I helped her out of a jam I guess
But I (C major) used a little too much force
We (G major) drove that car as (F major) far as we could
(G major) Abandoned it out west (F major)
(G major) Split up on a dark (F major) sad night
Both (C major) agreeing it was best
(D major) She turned around to (E minor) look at me
As (G major) I was walkin' away (C major)
(D major) I heard her say over my (E minor) shoulder
We'll meet (G major) again some day
(C major) On the aven (D major) ue
(F major) Tangled (C major) up in blue

Verse 3
(G minor) I had a job in the (F major) great north woods
Working as a (G minor) cook for a spell (F major)
But I (Gsus4) nev er did like it all (F major) that much
And one (C major) day the axe just fell
So I (G major) drifted down to (F major) New Orleans
Where I was (G minor) looking for to
(F major) be employed
(G major) Workin' for a while
(F major) on a fishin' boat
Right outside (C major) of Delacroix
(D major) But all the while I (E minor) was alone
The pas (G major) t was close be (C major) hind
(D major) I seen a lot of wo (E minor) men
But she (G major) never escaped my mind (C major)
And I just grew (D major)
(F major) Tangled (C major) up in blue
(G major) (Gsus4) (G major)
(Gsus4) (G major) (Gsus4)
Verse 4
(G major) (Gsus4)
She (G minor) was workin' in a (F major) topless place
And I (G minor) stopped in for a beer (F major)
I just kept (G minor) lookin' at the
(F major) side of her face
In the (C major) spotlight so clear
And (G major) later on as the (F major) crowd thinned out
I's (G major) just about to do the same (F major)
She was standing there
in back of my chair
Said (C major) to me, Don't I know your name?
I (D major) muttered somethin'
under (E minor) my breath
She stud (G major) ied the lines on my face (C major)
I (D major) must admit I felt a (E minor) little uneasy
When she (G major) bent down to tie the laces (C major)
Of my shoe (D major)
(F major) Tangled (C major) up in blue (G major) (Gsus4) (G major)
(Gsus4) (G major) (Gsus4) (G major)
Verse 5
(Gsus4) She lit a (F major) burner on the stove
And (G minor) offered me a pipe (F major)
I thought you'd never say hello, she said
You (C major) look like the silent type
Then she (G major) opened up a (F major) book of poems
And (G major) handed it to me (F major)
(G major) Written by an Italian (F major) poet
From the (C major) thirteenth century
(D major) And everyone of them word
(E minor) s rang true
And glowed (G major) like burnin' coal (C major)
(D major) Pourin' off of (E minor) every page
Like it (G major) was written in my soul
(C major) From me to you (D major)
(F major) Tangled up in blue (G major) (Gsus4)
(G major) (Gsus4) (G major) (Gsus4)
Verse 6
(G major)
(F major) I (G minor) lived with them on Montague (F major) Street
In a (G minor) basement (F major) down the stairs
There was (G major) music in the (F major) cafés at night
And re (C major) volution in the air
Then (G major) he started into deal (F major) ing with slaves
And (G major) something inside of him died (F major)
(G major) She had to sell everything (F major) she owned
And (C major) froze up inside
(D major) And when finally the (E minor) bot tom fell (G major) out
(Gsus4) I became with (C major) drawn
(D major) The only thing I knew how (E minor) to do
Was to (G major) keep on keepin' on
(C major) Like a bird that (D major) flew
Tangled (F major) up in (G major) blue (Gsus4) (G major)
(Gsus4) (G major) (Gsus4)
Verse 7
(G major)
(Gsus4) So (G major) now I'm goin' (F major) back again
I got to get to her somehow
(G major) All the people we (F major) used to know
They're an il (C major) lusion to me now
(G major) Some are mathem (F major) aticians
Some (G major) are (F major) carpenters' wives
Don't (G major) know how it all got star (F major) ted
I don't know (C major) what they're
doin' with their lives
But (D major) me, I'm still (E minor) on the road
(G major) Headin' for another joint (C major)
(D major) We always did (E minor) feel the same
We just saw (G major) it from a different
point (C major) of view (D major)
(F major) Tangled (C major) up in blue
