DON'T THINK TWICE, IT'S ALRIGHT

Bob Dylan

 

[G] Well it ain't no use to [D] sit and wonder [Em] why, babe

[C] If you don't know by [G] now [D]

[G] And it ain't no use to [D] sit and wonder [Em] why, babe

[A7] It don't matter any-[D]-how [D7]

[G] When your rooster crows at the [G7] break of dawn

[C] Look out your window and [A7] I'll be gone

[G] You're the reason I'm [Em] travelling [C] on

[G] But don't think [D] twice, it's [G] alright

 

And it [G] ain't no use in [D] turning on your [Em] light, babe

[C] That light I never [G] knowed [D]

And it [G] ain't no use in [D] turning on your [Em] light, babe

[A7] I'm on the dark side of the [D] road [D7]

I [G] wish there was something you would [G7] do or say

[C] To try and make me change my [A7] mind and stay

But [G] we never did too much [Em] talking any-[C]-way

[G] So don't think [D] twice it's [G] alright

 

And it [G] ain't no use in [D] calling out my [Em] name babe

[C] Like you never did [G] before [D]

[G] Ain't no use in [D] calling out my [Em] name babe

[A7] I can't hear you any [D] more [D7]

I'm [G] thinking and a-wondering, [G7] walking down the road

I [C] once loved a woman, [A7] a child I'm told

I [G] gave her my heart but she [Em] wanted my [C] soul

But [G] don't think [D] twice it's [G] alright

 

I'm [G] walking down that [D] long lonesome [Em] road, babe

[C] Where I'm bound I can't [G] tell [D]

But [G] goodbye is [D] too good a [Em] word, babe

[A7] So I'll just say fare thee [D] well [D7]

[G] I ain't saying you treated [G7] me unkind

You [C] could have done better but [A7] I don't mind

[G] You just kinda wasted [Em] my precious [C] time

[G] But don't think [D] twice it's [G] alright

Another great Dylan song from the Sixties, with many cover versions: most notably Peter, Paul & Mary, though I particularly like the Johnny Cash effort.
