[E] [A] Early one [Bm] morning the sun was [E] shining and he was [Bm] lying in bed,
[E] wondering if [Bm] she changed at all if her hair was [A] still red.
[E] The folks, they [Bm] said their lives together [E] sure was gonna [Bm] be rough.
[E] They never did like [Bm] Mama's homemade dress, [E] Papa's bank book wasn't [A] big enough.
[F#m] And he was standing [C#m] on the side of the [E] road, rain falling [A] on his shoes,
[F#m] heading out [C#m] for the old East Coast.
Lord knows he's [A] paid some dues.
[F#m] Getting through, [E]
tangled up in blue.
[A] [E] [A]
[E] She was [Bm] married when they first [E] met, soon to [Bm] be divorced.
[E] He helped her [Bm] out of a jam I [E] guess, but he used a little [A] too much force.
[E] And they drove the [Bm] car as far as they [E] could, abandoned [Bm] it out west,
[E] and split up [Bm] on a dark, sad [E] night, both agreeing [A] it was best.
[F#] And she turned [C#m] around to look at him [E] as he was [A] walking away.
[F#m] She said, this [C#m] can't be the end, [E] we'll meet on [A] another day on the [F#m] avenue,
tangled up [E] in blue.
[A]
[E] [A] [E] He had a [Bm] job in the great [E] Northwoods, working as a [Bm] cook for a spell.
[E] But he never [Bm] liked it all that [E] much, and one day the [A] ax just fell.
[E] So he drifted [Bm] down to LA, [E] where he reckoned to try [Bm] his luck,
[E] working for a [Bm] while in an airplane plant, [E] loading cargo [A] onto a truck.
[F#m] But all the [C#m] while, he was alone, [E] the past was [A] close behind.
[F#m] He'd seen a [C#m] lot of women, [E] but she never escaped [A] his mind,
and he [F#m] just grew, [E]
tangled up in blue.
[A] [E]
She was [Bm] working in a topless [E] place, and I stopped in [Bm] for a beer.
[E] I just kept [Bm] looking at the side of her [E] face, and the spotlight [A] so clear.
[E] And later [Bm] on, when the crowd thinned [E] out, I was about to do [Bm] the same.
[E] She was standing [Bm] there, in back of my chair, I said, tell me, what's your [A] name?
[F#m] I muttered [E] something underneath my [B] breath, she studied the [A] lines of my face.
[F#m] I must admit, I [C#m] felt a little uneasy when she bent down to tie [A] the laces of [F#] my shoes,
tangled up [E] in blue.
[A]
[E] [A] [E] She lit [Bm] a burner on the [E] stove, and offered [Bm] me a pipe.
[E] Thought you'd never [Bm] say hello, she [E] said, you look like the [A] silent type.
[E] And she opened [Bm] up a book of [E] poems, and handed [Bm] it to me,
[E] written [Bm] by an Italian [E] poet from the 13th [A] century.
[F#m] And every one [C#m] of them words rang [E] true, and glowed like [A] burning coal,
[F#m] pouring [C#m] off of every [E] page like it was written in [A] my soul,
from [F#m] me to you, [B]
tangled [E] up in blue.
[A] [E] [A]
[E] He [Bm] was always in a hurry, [E] too busy or too stoned,
and [Bm] everything that she ever [E] planned just had [A] to be postponed.
[E] He thought [Bm] they were successful, [E] she thought [Bm] they were blessed,
[E] with objects [Bm] and material [E] things, but I never [A] was impressed.
[F#m] And when it all [C#m] came crashing [E] down, I [A] became withdrawn.
[F#m] The only [C#m] thing I knew how to do [E] was keep on [A] keeping on,
like a bird [F#m] that flew, tangled up [E] in blue.
[A]
[E] [A] [E] So now I'm [Bm] going back [E] again, got to get to [Bm] her somehow.
[E] All the [Bm] people we used to [B] know, they're an illusion [A] to me now.
[E] Some are [Bm]
mathematicians, [E] some are [Bm] doctors' wives.
[E] Don't know how it [Bm] all got started, [E] don't know what [A] they're doing with their [F#] lives.
But me, [C#m] I'm still on the [E] road, heading for [A] another joint.
[F#] We [C#m] always did feel the [E] same, we just sighed from a [A] different point [F#m] of view,
[B]
tangled [E] up in blue.
