Ballad Of A Thin Man chords
The Grass Roots (Bob Dylan) (The Grass Roots called this Mr Jones (Ballad Of A Thin Man))

Capo II

Am F/Am 2x

Am F Am
You raise up your head
F Am
And you ask, Is this where it is?
F Am
And somebody points to you and says
F
It's his
Dm
And you say, What's mine?
F
And somebody else says, Where what is?
C
And you say, Oh my God
Am F
Am I here all alone?

C Em
And you know something is happening
Am F (Am F)
But you don't know what it is
G Am
Do you, Mister Jones?

Am F/Am 2x

Am F Am
You hand in your ticket
F Am
And you go watch the geek
F Am
Who immediately walks up to you
F
When he hears you speak
Am
And says, How does it feel
Dm F
To be such a freak?
C
And you say, Impossible
Am F
As he hands you a bone

C Em
And you know something is happening
Am F (Am F)
But you don't know what it is
G Am
Do you, Mister Jones?

Am F/Am

Am F Am
You have many contacts
F Am
Among the lumberjacks
F
To get you facts
Am F Am
When someone attacks your imagination
F Am
But nobody has any respect
F Am
Anyway they already expect you
F
To all give a check
Dm Am F G
To tax-deductible charity organizations
C Am F
Oh yeh yeh yeh

Am F Am
Well, you walk into the room
F Am
Like a camel and then you frown
F Am
You put your eyes in your pocket
F Am
And your nose on the ground
F
There ought to be a law
Am Dm
Against you comin' around
C
You should be made
Am F
To wear a bone

C Em
And you know something is happening
Am F (Am F)
But you don't know what it is
G Am
Do you, Mister Jones?

Am F/Am

G Am
Do you, Mister Jones?

Am F/Am
