Subterranean Homesick Blues chords
Bob Dylan
 
 
A7 A
 
A7                       A
Johnny's in the basement mixing up the medicine
A7                  A
I'm on the pavement thinking about the government
A7                          A
The man in the trench coat, badge out, laid off
A7                         A
Says he's got a bad cough, wants to get it paid off
D7
Look out kid, it's something you did
A7                         A
God knows when, but you're doing it again
           A7                      A
You better duck down the alleyway, looking for a new friend
    E7
The man in the coonskin cap in the pig pen
      A7                       A
Wants eleven dollar bills, but you only got ten
 
A7                       A
Maggie comes fleet foot, face full of black soot
A7                       A
Talking that the heat put plants in the bed but
A7                       A
The phone's tapped anyway, Maggie says that many say
A7                       A
They must bust in early May, orders from the D.A.
D7
Look out kid, don't matter what you did
A7                         A
Walk on your tip toes, don't try No Doz
A7                         A
Better stay away from those that carry around a fire hose
E7
Keep a clean nose, watch the plain clothes
A7                         A
You don't need a weather man to know which way the wind blows
A7                         A
Ah, get sick, get well, hang around the Ink Well
A7                         A
Ring a bell, hard to tell if anything is going to sell
A7                         A
Try hard, get barred, get back, write braille
A7                         A
Get jailed, jump bail, join the army, if you fail
D7
Look out kid, you're gonna get hit
A7                         A
But losers, cheaters, six-time users
A7                         A
Hanging 'round the theaters
E7
Girl by the whirlpool's looking for a new fool
A7                         A
Don't follow leaders, and watch your parking meters
A7                         A
Ah get born, keep warm, short pants, romance, learn to dance
A7                         A
Get dressed, get blessed, try to be a success
A7                         A
Please her, please him, buy gifts, don't steal, don't lift
A7                         A
Twenty years of schooling and they put you on the day shift
D7
Look out kid, they keep it all hid
A7                         A
Better jump down a manhole, light yourself a candle
A7                         A
Don't wear sandals, try to avoid the scandals
E7
Don't wanna be a bum, you better chew gum
A7                         A
The pump don't work 'cause the vandals took the handle
