POSITIVELY 4TH STREET

Bob Dylan

 

[G] You got a [Am] lotta nerve

To [C] say you are my [G] friend

[G] When I was [D] down [C] you just [Em] stood there [D] grinning

[G] You got a [Am] lotta nerve

To say you [C] got a helping hand to [G] lend

[G] You just [D] want to [C] be on the [Em] side that's [D] winning

 

[G] You say I [Am] let you down

You [C] know it's not like [G] that

If [G] you're so [D] hurt [C] why then [Em] don't you [D] show it

[G] You say you [Am] lost your faith

But [C] that's not where it's [G] at

You [G] have no [D] faith to [C] lose [Em] and you [D] know it

 

[G] I know the [Am] reason

That you [C] talk behind my [G] back

I [G] used to [D] be [C] among the [Em] crowd you're [G] in with

[G] Do you take me for [Am] such a fool

To [C] think I'd make con-[G]-tact

With the [G] one who tries to [D] hide what he [C] don't know [Em] to [D] begin with

 

[G] You see me [Am] on the street

You [C] always act [G] surprised

[G] You say, "How are [D] you?" "Good [C] luck" but [Em] you don't [D] mean it

When [G] you know as well as [Am] me

You'd rather [C] see me para-[G]-lyzed

[G] Why don't [D] you just [C] come out [Em] once and [D] scream it

 

[G] No, I do not [Am] feel that good

When I see the [C] heartbreak you [G] embrace

If [G] I was a [D] master [C] thief [Em] perhaps I'd [D] rob them

And [G] now I know you're [Am] dissatisfied

With your [C] position and your [G] place

But [G] don't you [D] under-[C]-stand it's [Em] not my [D] problem

 

[G] I wish that for [Am] just one time

You could [C] stand inside my [G] shoes

And [G] just for [D] that one [C] moment [Em] I could [D] be you

[G] Yes, I wish that for [Am] just one time

You could [C] stand inside my [G] shoes

[G] You'd know [D] what a [C] drag it [Em] is to [D] see you
