Words and music Bob Dylan
(from the album New Morning, 1970)
Tabbed by Eyolf Østrem
This is a piano song, and he prefers to play these on the black keys, hence the original key is Ab major. On a guitar this suggests a capo on the 1st fret, with the following chords:
[shamelessly happy "la la la la"s throughout the intro:]
G . . . |C /b Am7 . |D . C . |G . . . | G . . . |C . . . |D . . . |G . . . |
G C C/B Am
The man in me will do nearly any task,
D C G
And as for compensation, there's little he would ask.
G
Take a woman like you
C C/D
To get through to the man in me.
Storm clouds are raging all around my door, I think to myself I might not take it any more. Take a woman like your kind To find the man in me.
Am G
But, oh, what a wonderful feeling
Am G
Just to know that you are near,
Am G
Sets my a heart a-reeling
Am D
From my toes up to my ears.
The man in me will hide sometimes to keep from bein' seen, But that's just because he doesn't want to turn into some machine. Took a woman like you To get through to the man in me.
G C /B Am D G La la la la etc...
repeat and fade
