I will not transcribe it like that because the organ plays regular chord shapes. Just like father like son, I have a bit of the problem understanding what Dylan is saying but I will try my best: Intro: F Em Am (4x) F Em Am Well you can walk like a stranger, head back in your hair F Em Am Bringing gifts, while you act so sincere F Em Am F Em Am F Em Am Bringing gifts, oh boy, he~s five years F Em Am A game for rocks and traini...ing wheels F Em Am F Em Am Am C G F G Em Well I don~t remember you from any of those books C G F G Em E Ashes to ashes, and six feet under face down in a box F Em Am Where~d you ever learn to treat me like that F Em Am F Em Am F Em Am You don~t see that, baby ahh..., that famous stuff F Em Am You know the Harvard folds law, that penniless rough F Em Am F Em Am F Em Am Your bad luck follows you like a heart attack F Em Am Twist your fingers, soon as break your back F Em Am F Em Am Am C G F G Em Well I don~t remember you from any of those books C G F G Em E Ashes to ashes, and six feet under face down in a box F Em Am Where~d you ever learn to treat me like that F Em Am F Em Am It~s coming from another withered mother who~s just like yours F Em Am Bringing you aches and all those mental sores F Em Am Take a little half, so need some for yourself F Em Am Like an itty in the gritty, they always seem by themselves F Em Am Well you must be, had-to-be, one of these F Em Am Honey, on the shed on the open tree F Em Am Didn~t I meet you once in a liquor store F Em Am I think I saw you hanging by the stage door F Em Am Handing out programs to the family theater F Em Am Deprive the row, so you don~t miss her or treat her Am Am Am Am You take it Am Why take it? G Fast and ever F Em Dm If you gave yourself a chance... C G F G Em Well I don~t remember you from any of those books C G F G Em E Ashes to, ashes and six feet under faced down in a box F Em Am Where~d you ever learn to treat me like that? F Em Am... (the song fades out on these chords)
