Chords for Roger McGuinn/Hey Mr. Tambourine Man/4-15-2013/Rochester, NY

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ You finally [G] find me.
You came with the B-Wire, did you?
So we had a name, but we didn't have a record deal.
So we went over to audition for this agent in Hollywood named Benny [N] Shapiro.
_ And Benny was a real big guy.
He had all these big parties in the parking lot.
_ _ And _ _ _ [E] _ we played a few [Dm] songs for him in his living room.
We didn't know it, [N] but he had a 14-year-old daughter upstairs.
And she [E] came running down the stairs all excited.
She said, Daddy, [A#] Daddy, who's that?
She thought the Beatles was [N] in her house. _
_ _ _ _ Well, the next day, Miles Davis came over to see Benny because it was his agent.
_ And Benny's telling Miles, you know, a funny thing happened.
These kids came over to our audition last night.
My daughter flipped out.
She thought they were great.
_ Miles said, well, keep that away.
No one needs anything.
_ [C] So I picked up the phone and called Columbia Records.
And he said, you know that [Gm] rock band you've [B] been looking for?
_ I think I got a job. _
And they signed us on his recommendation. _
[N] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ The rock band [B] Columbia Records was kind of a middle-of-the-road [F#m] _ _ label.
They [E] were a little [B] bit afraid of rock [C] and roll.
_ So they gave us [B] a deal for one single, kind of a test of the waters.
_ [G] So if we could get a hit with that single, then we could go back in the [A] studio and record the rest [G] of the album.
So we needed a really [N] strong song.
And nobody thought any of our songs were that strong.
_ But Jim Dixon, our manager, had overheard some producers in Hollywood talking about Bob Dylan.
He said, wow, it's a shame Bob's not going to be able to use that song because so many were singing out of tune on it. _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [G] It wasn't Bob.
It [N] was one of his friends.
_ He didn't use the song for six months.
And so we got exclusive use of it before he did.
_ _ [A#] So we had a great song.
[C] _ When we first heard it, [N] they said, this devil comes.
[C#] So we thought, [B] let's sing it. _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [C#m] _
_ _ [F#] _ _ [G#m] _ _ _ [E] _
_ _ [B] _ _ _ [E] _ _ _
[F#] _ _ _ _ _ [E] _ _ [F#] _
_ _ _ [B] _ _ _ [E] _
And [B] _ _ [E] _ _ [F#] _ _ _
_ _ _ [B] _ _ _ _ _
_ [N] David Crosby said, I don't like it. _
_ _ _ _ He said that little folkie two, four times is never going to blow on the radio.
[Bm]
Well, he had a point.
The radio wasn't playing a lot of folk [Dm] songs coming in with it.
The [E] Beatles and the Stones.
_ So I had an idea how to fix that song [N] up for radio. _ _
I've been playing around on my Rickenbacker with little bots. _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ So _ _ _
_ _ _ [C#] _ _ _ _ _
_ [F#] _ [C#] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [G#] _ _ _ _
_ [D#m] _ [Fm] _ _ [N] _ what if I put something like that out in front for an intro, and then kick the whole thing up with a Beatle beat?
_ It might come on our caper radio.
_ _ [C#] _ _ _ _
_ _ [D#m] _ _ _ _ _ [C#] _
_ [F#] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [G#] May yesterday [C#] be better than _ _ [F#]
Sunday
_ _ I'm [C#] not sleepy _ and [F#] there ain't no place [G#] I will [C#] _ enter
[G#] _ _ _ _
[F#] _ _ _ May [G#] yesterday _ _ [C#] be better than _ _
[F#] Sunday
_ _ [C#] In the dream you try [F#] to warn me, I'll [G#] come _ [C#] apart _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [F#] _ _
We came [G#] for a trip, [C#] a love you imagined
_ [F#] _ _
_ _ All [C#] my senses are [F#] getting stripped
And [C#] my head and hands and [F#] feet _ _
And [C#] my toes to [F#] the moon's edge
_ _ Waiting [C#] for _ [F#]
my April Eve to be [G#] wandering
_ _ _ _ _ I _
[F#] _ need you [G#] now [C#] anywhere I may call [F#] you, sis
_ I'll [C#] hold you tight, I [F#] won't break
_ Gas [C#] to dance and [F#] spill my heart away _
I _ must go [G#]
on through [A#] _ _ _ [G#] _ _ it
[F#] _ _ May _ [G#] yesterday _ _ [C#] be better than _ _ [F#] Sunday
_ _ I'm not [C#] sleepy _ [F#] and there ain't no place I [G#] will enter
[C#] _ _ _ _
May [F#] _ _ _ _ _
[G#] yesterday _ _ [C#] be better than _ _ [F#] Sunday
_ In [C#] the dream you try to warn me, _ [G#] I'll come _ apart _
[C#] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
