Sad-Eyed Lady of the Lowlands chords Bob Dylan 1966 (Blonde on Blonde) Capo II C G F G7 2x C G F G7 With your mercury mouth in the missionary times, C G F G And your eyes like smoke and your prayers like rhymes, F C Dm G7 C And your silver cross, and your voice like chimes, C Dm G7 G Oh, who do they think could bury you? C G F G7 With your pockets well protected at last, C G F G And your streetcar visions which you place on the grass, F C Dm G7 C And your flesh like silk, and your face like glass, C Dm G7 G who could they get to carry you? Dm C G Sad-eyed lady of the lowlands, Dm C G7 G Where the sad-eyed prophet says that no man comes, C G F C F C G My warehouse eyes, my Arabian drums, Dm G7 G Should I put them by your gate, Dm C G Or, sad-eyed lady, should I wait? C G F G7 With your sheets like metal and your belt like lace, C G F G And your deck of cards missing the jack and the ace, F C Dm G7 C And your basement clothes and your hollow face, C Dm G7 G Who among them can think he could outguess you? C G F G7 With your silhouette when the sunlight dims C G F G Into your eyes where the moonlight swims, F C Dm G7 C And your match-book songs and your gypsy hymns, C Dm G7 G Who among them would try to impress you? Dm C G Sad-eyed lady of the lowlands, Dm C G7 G Where the sad-eyed prophet says that no man comes, C G F C F C G7 My warehouse eyes, my Arabian drums, Dm G7 G Should I put them by your gate, Dm C G Or, sad-eyed lady, should I wait? C G F G7 The kings of Tyrus with their convict list C G F G Are waiting in line for their geranium kiss, F C Dm G7 C And you wouldn't know it would happen like this, C Dm G7 G But who among them really wants just to kiss you? C G F G7 With your childhood flames on your midnight rug, C G F G And your Spanish manners and your mother's drugs, F C Dm G7 C And your cowboy mouth and your curfew plugs, C Dm G7 G Who among them do you think could resist you? Dm C G Sad-eyed lady of the lowlands, Dm C G7 G Where the sad-eyed prophet says that no man comes, C G F C F C G7 My warehouse eyes, my Arabian drums, Dm G7 G Should I put them by your gate, Dm C G Or, sad-eyed lady, should I wait? C G F G7 Oh, the farmers and the businessmen, they all did decide C G F G To show you the dead angels that they used to hide. F C Dm G7 G But why did they pick you to sympathize with their side? C Dm G7 G Oh, how could they ever mistake you? C G F G7 They wished you'd accepted the blame for the farm, C G F G But with the sea at your feet and the phony false alarm, F C Dm G7 G And with the child of a hoodlum wrapped up in your arms, C Dm G7 G How could they ever, ever persuade you? Dm C G Sad-eyed lady of the lowlands, Dm C G7 G Where the sad-eyed prophet says that no man comes, C G F C F C G7 My warehouse eyes, my Arabian drums, Dm G7 G Should I put them by your gate, Dm C G Or, sad-eyed lady, should I wait? C G F G7 With your sheet-metal memory of Cannery Row, C G F G And your magazine-husband who one day just had to go, F C Dm G7 G And your gentleness now, which you just can't help but show, C Dm G7 G Who among them do you think would employ you? C G F G7 Now you stand with your thief, you're on his parole C G F G With your holy medallion which your fingertips fold, F C Dm G7 G And your saint like face and your ghostlike soul, C Dm G7 G Oh, who among them do you think could destroy you? Dm C G Sad-eyed lady of the lowlands, Dm C G7 G Where the sad-eyed prophet says that no man comes, C G F C F C G7 My warehouse eyes, my Arabian drums, Dm G7 G Should I put them by your gate, Dm C G Or, sad-eyed lady, should I wait?
