KNOCKING ON HEAVEN'S »« Bob Dylan
[G] Mama take this [D] badge of of [Am] me,
[G] I can't [D] use it any[C]-more
[G] It's getting [D] dark, too dark to [Am] see
[G] I feel I'm [D] knocking on heaven's [C] door
[G] Knock, knock, [D] knocking on heavens [Am] door
[G] Knock, knock, [D] knocking on heavens [C] door
[G] Knock, knock, [D] knocking on heavens [Am] door
[G] Knock, knock, [D] knocking on heavens [C] door
G D Am
Mama put my guns in the ground
G D C
I can't shoot them anymore
G D Am
That long black cloud is coming down
G D C I feel I'm knocking on heaven's door
[G] Knock, knock, [D] knocking on heavens [Am] door
[G] Knock, knock, [D] knocking on heavens [C] door
[G] Knock, knock, [D] knocking on heavens [Am] door
[G] Knock, knock, [D] knocking on heavens [C] door
G D Am
Mama wipe the blood from my face
G D C
I'm sick and tired of the war
G D Am
Got a feeling that's hard to trace
G D C
I feel I'm knocking on heaven's door
[G] Knock, knock, [D] knocking on heavens [Am] door
[G] Knock, knock, [D] knocking on heavens [C] door
[G] Knock, knock, [D] knocking on heavens [Am] door
[G] Knock, knock, [D] knocking on heavens [C] door
[C] Nobody [F] feels [G] any [C] pain
Tonight as I [F] stand [G] inside the [C] rain
[F] Everybody [G] knows
[F] That Baby's got new [G] clothes
But [F] late[Em]-ly [Dm] I [C] see her [G] ribbons and her bows
Have [Am] fallen [C] from [F] her [G] curls
She [C] takes [Em] just [Dm] like [C] a [F] woman yes she does
She [C] makes love [Em] just [Dm] like [C] a [F] woman yes she does
And she [C] aches [Em] just [Dm] like [C] a [F] woman
But she [G] breaks just like a little [C] girl.
F C F G C
Queen Mary, she's my friend.
Yes I believe I'll go see her again.
Noboby has to guess
That baby can't be blessed,
'Till she sees finally that she's like all the rest.
With her fog, her amphetamines, and her pearls
It was [E7] raining from the first
And I was dying of thirst
So I [C] came in here
And your [E7] long time curse hurts
But whats worse is this [F] pain in here
[G] I can't stay in here, ain't it clear that..
I just can't fit.
Yes I believe it's time for us to quit.
And when we meet again,
Introduced as friends,
Please don't let on that you knew me when,
I was hungry, and it was your world.
They [G] guilty undertaker sighs, the [Bm] lonesome organ-grinder cries
The [Em] silver saxaphones say I should [D7] refuse you
The [C] cracked bells and washed out horns
[G] Blow into my face with scorn
But it's [Em] not that way, I wasnt born to [D7] lose you
Chorus
I [G] Want You, I [Bm] want you, I [Em] want you so [D7] bad
Honey I [G] want you
The drunken politician leaps upon the street where the mothers weep
And the saviours who are fast asleep they wait for you
And I wait for them to interrupt me drinking from my broken cup
And asking me to open up the gate for you
Now [Bm/Em] all my fathers they've gone down, true [C] love they've been [C]
without it
But [Bm/Em] all their daughters put me down cos [C] I don't think [D7] about it
Well I return to the Queen of Spades & talk with my chambermaid
She knows that I'm not afraid to look at her
She is good to me and there's nothing she doesn't see
She knows where I'd like to be but It doesn't matter
Now [Bm/Em] all my fathers they've gone down, true [C] love they've been [C]
without it
But [Bm/Em] all their daughters put me down cos [C] I don't think [D7] about it
Now your dancing child with his Chinese suit
He spoke to me, I took his flute
I know I wasn't very cute to him, was I?
But I did it because he lied
And because he took you for a ride
And because time was on his side, and because I ...
Now [Bm/Em] all my fathers they've gone down, true [C] love they've been [C]
without it
But [Bm/Em] all their daughters put me down cos [C] I don't think [D7] about it
Your [Am] breath is sweet your eyes are like two [G] jewels in the sky
Your [F] back is straight your hair is smooth on the [E] pillow where you lie
[Am] But I don't sense affection, no, nor [G] gratitude nor love
Your [F] loyalty is not to me, but [E] to the stars above
[F] One more cup of coffee for the [E] road
[F] One more cup of coffee 'fore I [E] go, to the valley [Am] below
Am G
Your Daddy he's an outlaw and a wanderer by trade
F E
He'll teach you how to pick and choose, and how to throw the blade
Am G
He oversees his kingdom so no stranger will intrude
F E
His voice it trembles as he calls for another plate of food
[F] One more cup of coffee for the [E] road
[F] One more cup of coffee 'fore I [E] go, to the valley [Am] below
Am G
Your sister sees the future like your mother and yourself
F E
You've never learned to read or write, there's no books upon your shelf
Am G
But your pleasure knows no limits, your voice is like a meadowlark
F E
But your heart is like an ocean, mysterious and dark
[F] One more cup of coffee for the [E] road
[F] One more cup of coffee 'fore I [E] go, to the valley [Am] below
I [G] pity the poor [C] immigrant who [D7] wishes he would have stayed [G] home
Who uses [G] all his power to do [C] evil but in the [D7] end is always left so
[G] alone
That [Em] man whom with his [Bm] fingers cheats, who [C] lies with every [G]
breath
Who [G] passionately [C] hates his life and [D7] likewise fears his [G] death
G C D7 G
I pity the poor immigrant who tramples thru the mud
G C D7 G
Who fills his mouth with laughing & who builds his town with blood
Em Bm C G
Who eats but is not satisfied, who hears but does not see
G C D7 G
Who falls in love with wealth itself and turns his back on me
G C D7 G I pity the poor immigrant whose strength is
spent in vain
G C D7 G
Whose heaven is like ironsides, whose tears are like rain
Em Bm C G
Whose visions in the final end, must shatter like the glass
G C D7 G
I pity the poor immigrant when his gladness comes to pass
[Bm] Our conversation was [Am] short and sweet
[Bm] It nearly knocked me, [Am] off my feet
And I'm [G] back in the rain, [C] oh, and you are on dry [G] land
[C] You made it there some[Am] how, you'[Bm] re a [C] big girl [G] now
Bm Am
Bird on the horizon, sitting on a fence
Bm Am
He's singing a song for me, at his own expense
G C G
And I'm just like that bird, oh, singing just for you
C Bm C G
I hope that you can hear, hear me singing thru these tears
Bm Am
Time is a jet plane, it moves too fast
Bm Am
Oh but what a shame, if all we've shared can't last
G C G
I can change, I swear, Oh, see what you can do
I can make it thru, You can make it too.
Bm Am
Love is so simple, to coin a phrase
Bm Am
You've known it all the time, I'm learnin' it these days
G C G
Oh, I know where I can find you, Oh, in somebody's room
C Bm C G
That's a price I have to pay, You're a big girl all the way
Bm Am
A change in the weather, is known to be extreme
Bm Am
But what's the sense in changing horses in mid-stream
G C G
I'm going out of my mind, oh, with a pain that stops and starts
C Bm C G
Like a corkscrew down my heart, ever since we've been apart.
If not for [D] you
[G] Babe, I couldn't [D] find the door
[G] Couldn't [D]even see the floor
[G] I'd be sad and [F#m] blue
Babe, [Em] if not for [D] you
[G] If not for [D] you
[G] Babe I'd lie [D] awake at night
[G] waitin for the [D] morning light
[G] to shine in [F#m] through
[Em] But it would not be [F#m] new [Em] If not for [D] you.
[G] If not for you my [D] sky would fall
[A] Rain would gather [D] too
[G] without your love I'd be [D] nowhere at all
[E] Oh what would I [A] do if not for [G] you
F#m Em A G F#m Em D G D
[G]
If not for [D] you
[G]
Winter would [D] have no spring
[G]
Couldnt hear the [D] robin sing
[G]
I just wouldnt have [F#m] a clue
[Em]
Anyway it wouldnt ring[F#m] true
[Em]
If not for [D] you
[D]may God bless and keep you always
may your [F#m] wishes all come true
may you [G] always do for others
and let others do for [D] you
[D] may you build a ladder to the stars
and [F#m] climb on every rung
and may you [G]stay [A7]forever [D] young
D
may you grow up to be righteous
F#m
may you grow up to be true
G
may you always know the truth
D
and see the light surrounding you
D
may you always be courageous
F#m
stand upright and be strong
G A7 D
and may you stay forever young
forever [A7] young forever [Bm] young
may you [D] stay [A7] forever [G] young [D]
D
may your hands always be busy
F#m
may your feet always be swift
G
may you have a strong foundation
D
when the winds of changes shift
D
may your heart always be joyful
F#m
may your song always be sung
G A7 D
and may you stay forever young
[E]Buckets of rain, buckets of tears,
Got all them buckets comin' out of my ears
[A] Buckets of moonbeams in my [E] hand
[B7] You got all the love, [A] honey baby I can [E] stand
E, A, E, B-A-G#m-F#m-E
E
I've been meek & hard like an oak
Seen pretty people disappear like smoke
Am
Friends will arrive, friends will disappear
B7 A E
If you want me, honey baby, I'll be here
E
I like your smile and your fingertips
I like the way that you move your hips
Am
I like the way you love me strong and slow
B7 A E
I'm takin' you with me, honey baby when I go
E
Little red wagon, little red bike
I ain't no monkey but I know what I like
Am
I like the cool way you look at me
B7 A E
Everything about you is bringing me misery
E
Life is sad, life is a bust
All you can do, is do what you must
Am
Ya do what ya must do, and ya do it well
B7 A E
I'll do it for you, honey baby can't you tell
[Em]As I went out one [D]morning, to breath the [Em]air around [D]Tom [Em]Payne
I [Em]spied the fairest [D]damsel, that [Em]ever did walk [D]in [Em]chains
I [G]offered her my [Bm]hand, she [Em]took me by [D]the [Em]arm
I [Em]knew that very [D]instant, that she [Em]meant to do [D]me [Em]harm
Em D Em D Em
Depart from me this moment, I told her with my voice
Em D Em D Em
Said she, but I don't wish to, said I, but you have no choice
G Bm Em D Em
I beg you sir, she pleaded, from the corners of her mouth
Em D Em D Em
I will secretly accept you, and together we'll fly south
Em D Em D Em
Just then old Tom Payne himself came running from across a field
Em D Em D Em
Shouting at this lovely girl, and commanding her to yield
G Bm Em D Em
And as she was letting go her grip, up Tom Payne did run
Em D Em D Em I'm sorry sir, he said to me, I'm sorry for what she's done
D C G D G D Of war and peace the truth just twists, its curfew gull it
glides
C G D G D Upon 4-legged forest clouds the cowboy angel rides
A7 D G C G A With his candle lit into the sun, though its glow is waxed in black
D F G D G D All except when 'neath the trees of Eden D C G D G D
D C G D G D The lampost stands with folded arms, its iron claws attached
C G D G D To curbs 'neath holes where babies wail though it shadows metal
badge
A7 D G C G A All in all can only fall with a crashing but meaningless blow
D F G D G D No sound ever comes from the gates of Eden
D C G D G D This savage soldier sticks his head in sand and then complains
C G D G D Unto the shoeless hunter who's gone deaf but still remains
A7 D G C G A Upon the beach where hounddogs bay at ships with tattooed sails
D F G D G D Heading for the gates of Eden
D C G D G D With a time-rusted compass blade, Aladdin and his Lamp
C G D G D Sits with utopian hermit monks, side-saddle on the Golden Calf
A7 D G C G A And on their promises of paradise you will not hear a laugh
D F G D G D All except inside the gates of Eden
D C G D G D Relationships of ownership they whisper in the wings
C G D G D To those condemned to act accordingly and wait for succeeding
kings
A7 D G C G A And I try to harmonize with songs the lonesome sparrow sings
D F G D G D
There are no kings inside the gates of Eden
D C G D G D The motorcycle black madonna two-wheeled gypsy queen
C G D G D And her silver studded phantom cause the grey-flanneled dwarf to
scream
A7 D G C G A As he weeps to wicked birds of prey who pick up on his breadcrumbs
sins
D F G D G D And there are no sins inside the gates of Eden
D C G D G D The kingdoms of experience in the precious winds they rot
C G D G D While paupers change possessions each one wishing for what the
other has got
A7 D G C G A And the princess and the prince discuss what's real and what is not
D F G D G D It doesnt matter inside the gates of Eden
D C G D G D The foreign sun it squints upon a bed that is never mine
C G D G D As friends and other strangers from their fates try to resign
A7 D G C G A Leaving men wholly totally free to do anything they wish to do but
die
D F G D G D And there are no trials inside the gates of Eden
D C G D G D At dawn my lover comes to me and tells me of her dreams
C G D G D With no attempts to shovel the glimpse into the ditch of what
each one means
A7 D G C G A At times I think there are no words but these to tell what's true
D F G D G D And there are no truths outside the gates of Eden
