Chords for Ballad of a Thin Man - Cover by Wyndham Baird

[D] _ _ _ _ [Dm] _ _ _ [C] _
_ [Em] _ _ [Am] _ _ _ _ _
_ [Dm] _ [Am] _ _ _ [Dm] _ [Am] _ _
_ _ _ You walk into the room [E]
with your [A] pencil in your hand.
[C] You see [Am] somebody naked and you [F#] say, who is that man?
_ [Dm] You try so hard [Am] but you [D] [Dm] don't understand.
_ [C] Just watch [Em] and you'll see when [Am] you get home.
_ _ [C] _ Something is [Em] happening here [Am] and you don't know what it _ _ [F] is. _ _
[Am] _ _ [Dm] _ [Am] _ _ _ _ [Am] _
_ _ _ [Am] _ _ _ _ _
_ You walk into the room and you [C] ask, is [Am] this where it [E] is?
_ [Em] [Am] And somebody points to you [F#] and says, it's his.
[F] And you say, what's mine?
[C] And [Dm] somebody else says, well what is?
And [C] you say, oh my [E] god, am I here all [Am] along?
_ [Dm] _
[C] _ And you [Em] know something is happening here [A] but you don't know what it is.
[G] _ [F] _ _ _ _ [Am] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ Out of sorts, smiling, he comes up [A] to you and as he kneels,
[Am]
he crosses himself and then [F#m] he [F#] clicks his high heels.
[Dm] But without further notice he asks you how it feels
and he says, [Am] here is your throat patch, [Em] [D] thanks for that long.
_ [Am] _
And you know something is happening here but you don't know what it [G] is.
[F] Who knew you?
_ [Am] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ You hand in your ticket [E] and you [A] go watch [E] the geek.
[Am] When meeting he walks up [D] to you, when he hears you speak,
[F] and says how does it feel to [Dm] be such a freak?
And you [Am] say [C] impossible as [Em] he hands you a [Am] phone.
[G] _ [Am] _
[C] And you [Em] know something is happening [D] here but [Am] you don't know what it is.
[G] _ [F] _ You _ [Am] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Dm] _ [Am] _ see this one-eyed [E] midget [Am] shouting the word now.
And you say, for what reason?
[D] And he says, how?
[F] And you say, what does this [G] mean?
And he [Dm] screams back, you're a cow.
[Am] Give me [Em] some milk or else [Am] go [Dm] home.
[Am] _
_ [Em] And you know something is happening here [A#] but you don't know what it is.
[F] _ Who knew you?
[Am] _ _ _
[F] _ [Am] _ _ _ [Dm] _ [Am] _ You have many [G] [C] contacts among the lumberjacks to [F] get you facts.
When someone attacks your [Am] imagination,
_ [Dm] _ [Am] _ _
has any [C] respect, any way, they just expect you [F] to give a [Dm] check
to tax deductible charity [G] organizations. _ _ _ _ _ _
[Am] You've been with the professors and [E] they've [A] all liked your looks.
_ [Am] With three lawyers you have [D] discussed lepers and crooks.
[F] You've been through all [Dm] of F.
Scott Fitzgerald's books.
[Am] You're [Em] very well read, [Am] it's well known.
_ _ [C] And you know [Em] something is happening here but [Am] you don't know what it is.
[G] _ [F] Who knew you?
[Am] _ _ _
[Dm] _ [Am] _ _ _ _ [Am] _ _ _
_ [Dm] _ [Am] _ _ _ _ Why are you walking in the room like [E] a camel and then you frown?
[C] You put your eyes in your pocket and your [B] [D] nose on the ground.
[F] That ought to be a [E] law against you [Dm] coming around.
You [C] should be made [Em] to wear [D] [Am] headphones.
_ [D] _
[Am] _ [C] That's [Em] something is happening [Dm] here.
[Am] _ _ _ [G] _ [F] _ _ _ [Dm] _ [Am] _ _
