Abandoned Love by Bob Dylan
Abandoned Love
Intro:
G Cadd9 D G
My heart is telling me, I love you still
Verses:
G D/F# Em
I can see the turning of the key
C C/B D
I've been deceived by the clown inside of me
Bm Bm7 C
I thought that he was righteous but he's vain
G Cadd9 D G
Something's telling me, I wear the ball and chain
(same chords throughout)
G D/F# Em
My patron saint is a-fighting with a ghost
C C/B D
He's always off somewhere when I need him most
Bm Bm7 C
The Spanish moon is rising on the hill
G Cadd9 D G
But something's telling me, I love you still
G D/F# Em
I come back to the town from the flaming ruins
C C/B D
But when I see you in the street I begin to swoon
Bm Bm7 C
I love to see you dress before the mirror
G Cadd9 D G
Won't you let me in your room one time, before I finally disappear
G D/F# Em
Everybody's wearing a disguise
C C/B D
To hide what they've got left behind their eyes
Bm Bm7 C
But me I can't cover what I am
G Cadd9 D G
Wherever their children go, I'll follow them
G D/F# Em
I'm marching the parade of liberty
C C/B D
But as long as I love you I'm not free
Bm Bm7 C
How long must I suffer such abuse
G Cadd9 D G
Won't you let me see you smile, before I turn you loose
G D/F# Em
I've given up the game I've got to leave
C C/B D
The pot of gold is only make believe
Bm Bm7 C
The treasure can't be found by men who search
G Cadd9 D G
Who's gods are dead and whose queens are in the church
G D/F# Em
We sat in an empty theater and we kissed
C C/B D
I asked you please to cross me off your list
Bm Bm7 C
My head tells me it's time to make a change
G Cadd9 D G
But my heart is telling me, I love you but you're strange
(Harmonica solo, same chords)
G D/F# Em
So one more time at midnight near the wall
C C/B D
Take off your heavy makeup and your shawl
Bm Bm7 C
Won't you descend from the throne from whence you sit
G Cadd9 D G
And let me feel your love one more time, before I finally abandon it
