SONG FOR BOB
Lachlan Irvine
[D][G][D][D] [D][G][D][D]
[G] Hey, tambourine man, [A] what do you know?
[D] Down another highway, [G] here we go.
[D] Half a century's [G] been and gone,
[D] This old world keeps [G] ro-[Em][A]-llin' a-[D]-long. [G][D][D]
[G] Trails of trouble, [A] roads of battle,
[D] Paths of victory [G] we have walked.
[D] Times a-changing, [G] freedom chiming,
[D] Through the doors that [G] you [Em][A] un-[D]-locked. [G][D][D] [D][G][D][D]
[G] Hey, hey, Zimmerman, [A] lo and behold,
[D] We never thought we'd [G] ever get old.
[D] One too many [G] mornings down,
[D] You're still wearing that [G] same [Em][A] thorny [D] crown. [G][D][D]
[G] My freewheelin' [A] days are over,
[D] Too much blood left [G] on the track;
But [D] straight ahead with [G] wheels on fire
[D] You keep on moving and [G] don't [Em] [A] look [D] back. [G][D][D] [D][G][D][D]
[G] Hey, Mr Spokesman, [A] with all your fame,
[D] I know you never wanted to [G] wear that name.
[D] While we were claiming you [G] for our own,
[D] The world was never gonna [G] leave [Em][A] you a-[D]-lone. [G][D][D]
[G] How does it feel, in these [A] modern times,
[D] Collecting awards for your [G] life of rhymes?
[D] Still going strong, still [G] making the news,
[D] Still on the road, still [G] sing-[Em][A]-ing the [D] blues. [G][D][D] [D][G][D][D]
[G] Hey, hey, Bobby, [A] don't think twice,
[D] It's alright at [G] any price;
For [D] all the songs I've [G] sung and played,
My [D] debt to you can [G] ne-[Em][A]-ver be [D] paid. [G][D][D]
[G] Sundown, [A] yellow moon,
[D] When your time is [G] due,
[D] Leadbelly, Woody and [G] Robert Johnson
[D] They'll be proud to [G] walk [Em][A] with [D] you. [D][G][D][D] [D][G][D][D]
