Someone Got a Hold of My Heart
Bob Dylan
(down/up) (up) (up) (x4)
They say "eat, drink and be merry -- Take the bull by the horns."
I keep seeing visions of you -- a lily among thorns
( - strum up )
Everything looks a little far away to me
Gettin' harder and harder to recognize the trap
Too much information about nothin', Too much educated crap
( )
just like you told me, It's just like you said it would be
The moon goin' up like wildfire -- I feel the breath of a storm.
Something I got to do tonight -- You go inside and stay warm.
Someone's got a hold of my heart (x3)
You, you, you, Yeah, you got a hold of my heart
(down/up) (up) (up) (x4)
Just got back from a city -- city of red skies
Everybody thinks with their stomach and there's plenty of spies
Every street is crooked -- they just wind around till they
( )
disappear
Madame Butterfly, she lulls me to sleep
Like an ancient river -- So wide and deep
( )
She said, "Be easy, baby, ain't nothin' worth stealin' here"
You're the one I've been waitin' for -- You're the one that I desire
But you must realize the first now - I'm not just another man that
you can hire
Someone's got a hold of my heart (x3)
You, you, you, Yeah, you got a hold of my heart
(x4)
I can hear that hot-blooded singer -- On the bandstand croon
Poison love - red roses for a blue lady in Memphis in June
While they're beating the devil out of a guy
( )
who's wearing a powder blue wig
I been to Babylon -- I gotta confess
I can still hear that voice crying in the wilderness
( )
What looks large from a distance, close up is never that big
Never could learn to drink that blood and call it wine
Never could learn to look at your face and call it mine.
Someone's got a hold of my heart
Someone's got a hold of my heart
Someone's got a hold of my heart
You, you, you, Yeah, you got a hold of my heart
(repeat to fade)
