Mr. Tambourine Man Lyrics

Hey Mr. Tambourine Man?

[Chorus]
Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me
I'm not sleepy and there is no place I'm goin' to
Hey Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me
In the jingle jangle mornin' I'll come followin' ya

[Verse]
Take me on a trip upon your magic swirlin' ship
My senses have been stripped, my hands can't feel to grip
My toes too numb to step
Wait only for my boot heels to be wanderin'
(Hey Mr. Tambourine Man)
I'm ready to go anywhere
I'm ready for to fade into my own parade
Cast your dancin' spell my way, I promise to go under it

[Chorus]
Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me
I'm not sleepy and there is no place I'm goin' to
Hey Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me
In the jingle jangle mornin' I'll come followin' you

[Outro]
Hey, Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me
Mr. Tambourine Man
Mr. Tambourine Man
Hey, Mr. Tambourine Man
Hey, Mr. Tambourine Man
Mr. Tambourine Man!

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
