[Verse 1]
[G]Early one
morning the sun [F]was shining,
I [G]was laying in [F]bed
Won[G]dering if she'd [F]changed at all,
if her [C]hair was still red
Her [G]folks, said our lives [F]together,
sure [G]was gonna be [F]rough
They nev[G]er did like mama's
[F]homemade dress,
papa's [C]bank wasn't big enough
And [D]I was standing by
the [Em]side of the road,
rain fall[G]ing on my [C]shoes
[D]Heading out for the eas[Em]t coast,
lord [G]knows I paid some [C]dues
Gettin' [D]through
[F]Tangled [C]up in [G]blues
[C][G][C][G][C][G][C]
She [G]was married when we [F]first met
[G]Soon to be divorced
[F]I h[G]elped her out of a j[F]am, I guess
But I [C]used a little too much force
We [G]drove that car as [F]far as we could
Aban[G]doned it out [F]west
[G]Split up on a [F]dark, night
Both agree[C]ing it was best
She [D]turned around to [Em]look at me,
as I [G]was walking [C]away
[D]I heard her say over my s[Em]houlder,
we'll [G]meet again someday
[C]On the aven[D]ue,
[F]tangled [C]up in [G]blue[C][G][C][G]
[C][G][C]
I [G]had a job in [F]the great north woods,
work[G]ing as a cook for a [F]spell.
But I [G]never did like it [F]all that much,
and one [C]day the axe just fell.
So I [G]drifted down to [F]New Orleans,
where I [G]was lucky to be [F]employed.
Work[G]in' for a while on a fish[F]in' boat
Right out[C]side of Delacroix
But [D]all the while I [Em]was alone
The past [G]was close be[C]hind
[D]I seen a lot of wom[Em]en
But she nev[G]er escaped my [C]mind
And I just [D]grew tangled [F]up [C]in
[G]blue[C][G][C][G][C][G][C]
She [G]was working in [F]a topless place
when [G]I dropped in for beer
[F]I just k[G]ept looking at the s[F]ide of her face
in the spot[C]light so clear
And [G]later on, when the [F]crowd thinned out,
I [G]was just about to do the [F]same
She was stand[G]ing there,
in the [F]back of my jet
She said, ex[C]cuse me,
don't I know your name?
Well, [D]I muttered something
underneath [Em]my breath
She [G]studied the lines on my [C]face
I [D]must admit, I felt a [Em]little uneasy
When she [G]bent down to tie up
[C]the laces of my [D]shoes
[F]Tangled up [C]in blu[G]e[C][G][C][G][C][G]
[C]
She [G]lit a burner on [F]the stove
and [G]offered me a [F]pipe
I [G]thought you'd never say hello,
[F]she said
You [C]look like the silent type
Then she [G]opened up a [F]book of poems,
[G]handed it to [F]me
Writ[G]ten by some Itali[F]an poet
from the [C]13th century
And [D]every one of them [Em]words rang true
and [G]glowed like burning [C]coal
Pour[D]ing off of [Em]every page,
like they were [G]written in my [C]soul
From me to [D]you,
[F]tangled [C]up in [G]blue[C][G][C][G]
[C][G]
[C]I liv[G]ed with them on Mon[F]tague Street
In a [G]basement down the [F]stairs
There was mu[G]sic in the [F]cafes
At night and revolu[C]tion in the air
Till [G]he started into deal[F]ing in slaves
and [G]something inside of him died
[F]She had[G] to sell all her things s[F]he owned
and [C]froze up inside
And [D]when it all came [Em]crashing down
[G]I became withdrawn
[C]The onl[D]y thing I knew how to [Em]do
was just [G]keep on keeping on
[C]Like a bird that fle[D]w
[F]Tangled [C]up in [G]blue[C][G][C][G][C][G]
[C]
So [G]now I'm going back [F]again
I've got to [G]get to her somehow
[F]All[G] the people that we
[F]used to know
They're in a [C]luge I'm turnin' now
[G]Some are mathem[F]aticians
[G]Some are carpenter's [F]wives
I don't know [Bb]how they [G]all got star[F]ted
I don't know what [C]they're doing
with their lives
But [D]me here, I'm still on [Em]the road
[G]Headin' for another [C]joint
Where we al[D]ways did [Em]feel the same
We just [G]saw it from a different
[C]point of [D]view
[F]Tangled [C]up in [G]blue[C][G][C]
[F]Tangled [C]up in [G]blue[C][G]
[C]Tan[G]gled up [F]in [C]blue[G]
[C]Tangled [D]up [F]in [C]blue[G][F][C][G][F][C]
[G]
You
