 	I Want You
 	Dylan
 
 F
 The guilty undertaker sighs,
     Am
 The lonesome organ grinder cries,
     Dm                            C
 The silver saxophones say I should refuse you.
     Bb
 The cracked bells and washed-out horns 
 C
 Blow into my face with scorn,
          Dm
 But it’s not that way,
                  C
 I wasn’t born to lose you.
   F           Am
 I want you, I want you,
   Dm          C
 I want you so bad,
               F
 Honey, I want you.
 
     F
 The drunken politician leaps
  Am
 Upon the street where mothers weep
         Dm
 And the saviors who are fast asleep,
     C
 They wait for you.
       Bb
 And I wait for them to interrupt
 C
 Me drinkin’ from that broken cup
     Dm
 And ask me to
             C
 Open up the gate for you.
   F           Am
 I want you, I want you,
   Dm          C
 I want you so bad,
               F
 Honey, I want you. 
 
     Am             
 Now all my fathers, they’ve gone down,
 Dm     
 True love they’ve been without it.
     Am
 But all their daughters put me down
        Bb                 C
 ’Cause I don’t think about it.
 
 F
 Well, I return to the Queen of Spades
     Am
 And talk with my chambermaid.
 Dm
 She knows that I’m not afraid
    C
 To look at her
 Bb
 She is good to me
 C
 And there’s nothing she doesn’t see.
     Dm
 She knows where I’d like to be
 C
 But it doesn’t matter.
   F           Am
 I want you, I want you,
   Dm          C
 I want you so bad
          F
 Honey, I want you.
 
 F
 Now your dancing child with his Chinese suit,
    Am
 He spoke to me, I took his flute.
 Dm
 No, I wasn’t very cute to him, 
 C
 Was I?
       Bb
 But I did it, though, because he lied
 C
 Because he took you for a ride
     Dm
 And because tine was on his side
     C
 And because I...
   F            Am
 I want you,  I want you,
   Dm          C
 I want you so bad
          F
 Honey, I want you.
