Hey, Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me 
I'm not sleepy and there is no place I'm going to 
Hey, Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me 
In the jingle jangle morning I'll come following you 

Though I know that evening's empire has returned into sand 
Vanished from my hand 
Left me blindly here to stand, but still not sleeping 
My weariness amazes me, I'm branded on my feet 
I have no one to meet 
And the ancient empty street's too dead for dreaming 

Hey, Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me 
I'm not sleepy and there is no place I'm going to 
Hey, Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me 
In the jingle jangle morning I'll come following you 

Take me on a trip upon your magic swirling ship 
My senses have been stripped 
My hands can't feel to grip 
My toes too numb to step 
Wait only for my boot heels to be wandering 
I'm ready to go anywhere, I'm ready for to fade 
Into my own parade 
Cast your dancing spell my way, I promise to go under it 

Hey, Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me 
I'm not sleepy and there is no place I'm going to 
Hey, Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me 
In the jingle jangle morning I'll come following you 

Though you might hear 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 
And if you hear vague traces of skipping reels of rhyme 
To your tambourine in time 
It's just a ragged clown behind 
I wouldn't pay it any mind 
It's just a shadow you're seeing that he's chasing 

Hey, Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me 
I'm not sleepy and there is no place I'm going to 
Hey, Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me 
In the jingle jangle morning I'll come following you 

And take me disappearing through the smoke rings of my mind 
Down the foggy ruins of time 
Far past the frozen leaves 
The haunted frightened trees 
Out to the windy beach 
Far from the twisted reach of crazy sorrow 
Yes, to dance beneath the diamond sky 
With one hand waving free 
Silhouetted by the sea 
Circled by the circus sands 
With all memory and fate 
Driven deep beneath the waves 
Let me forget about today until tomorrow 

Hey, Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me 
I'm not sleepy and there is no place I'm going to 
Hey, Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me 
In the jingle jangle morning I'll come following you
