Absolutely Sweet Marie
Bob Dylan

               D          G          A              D
Well, your railroad gate, you know I just can't jump it
G                    F#m       A
Sometimes it gets so hard, you see
         D            G          A  D       Bm
I'm just sitting here beating on my trumpet
     F#m                             A
with all these promises you left for me
    G                A           D
But where are you tonight, sweet Marie

         D             G      A         D
Well, I waited for you when I was half sick
       G             F#m             A
Yes I waited for you when you hated me
         D             G              A     D        Bm
Well, I waited for you inside of the frozen traffic
         F#m                            A
When you knew I had some other place to be
           G          A           D
Now, where are you tonight, sweet Marie

      Bb                                  D
Well, anybody can be just like me, obviously
     Bb                                       D             A
But then, now again, not too many can be like you, fortunately

      D                     G       A       D
Well, six white horses that you did promise me
     G                 F#m                  A
Were finally delivered down to the penitentiary
       D                G        A       D       Bm
But to live outside the law, you must be honest
  F#m                           A
I know you always say that you agree
     G              A            D
But where are you tonight, sweet Marie

       D                 G   A       D
Now, I been in jail when all my mail showed
       G                          F#m           A
That a man can't give his address out to bad company
          D                  G       A         D      Bm
And now I stand here lookin' at your yellow railroad
       F#m                A
In the ruins of your balcony
          G                A           D
Wond'ring where are you tonight, sweet Marie

             Bb                                                          D
Well I don't know how it happened, but the riverboat captain,he knows my fate
    Bb                                     D                  A
But ev'rybody else, even yourself, they're just gonna have to wait

        D             G    A     D
Well, I got the fever down in my pockets
    G                 F#m        A
The Persian drunkard, he follows me
            D               G            A       D       Bm
Yes, I can take him to your house, but I can't unlock it
    F#m                                  A
You see, you forgot to leave me with the key
    G               A            D
Oh, where are you tonight, sweet Marie
