Changing Of The Guards Bob Dylan
Sixteen ye[Em]ars,
Sixte[G]en banners un[D]ited over the f[Em]ield
Where a [C]good Shepard g[D]rieves.
Desperate [Em]men, desperate [G]women di[D]vided,
Spreading their [Em]wings 'neath the [D]fallin[C]g le[G]aves
Fortune [Em]calls
I step[G]ped forth from the [D]shadows, to the [Em]marketplace,
Merchants and [C]thieves, hungry for [D]power, my last deal gone [Em]down.
She's smelling [G]sweet like the m[D]eadows where she was [Em]born
On midsummer's eve, [C]nea[D]r the [G]tower.
The cold-blooded[Em] moon
The captain [G]waits above the [D]celebration
Sending his [Em]thoughts to a [C]beloved [D]maid
Whose ebony [Em]face is be[G]yond com[D]munication.
he captain is [Em]down but still believing that his lo[C]ve wi[D]ll be [G]repaid.
They shaved her [Em]head.
She was torn between [G]Jupiter and [D]Apollo.
A messenger [Em]arrived with a [G]black n[D]ightingale.
I seen her on the [Em]stairs and I [G]couldn't help but [D]follow,
F[Em]ollow her down past the fountain where they l[D]ifted [C]her [G]veil.
I stumbled to my [Em]feet
I rode past the [G]destruction in the [D]ditches
With the [Em]stitches still mending 'neath the [C]heart shaped [D]tattoo.
Renegade [Em]priests and [G]treacherous young [D]witches
Were [Em]handing out the flowers that I'd [D]giv[C]en to [G]you.
The palace of [Em]mirrors
Where dog [G]solders are [D]reflected,
[Em] [C] [G]
The endless road and the wailing of chimes
The empty [Em]rooms where her [G]memory is [D]protected
Where the [Em]angels' voices whisper to the [D]souls of [C]previous [G]times.
She wakes hi[Em]m up
Forty-eight hours [G]later, the sun is [D]breaking
Near broken[Em] chains, mountain [C]laurel and r[D]olling rock.
She's begging to [Em]know what [G]measures he now will be [D]taking.
He's pulling her [Em]down and she's clutching on to his [D]long [C]golden [G]locks.
Gentlemen, [Em]he said,
I don't [G]need your [D]organization, I've shined your[Em] shoes,
I've moved your [C]mountains, and marked your [D]cards
But Eden is[Em] burning, either [C]brace yourself for [D]elimination
Or [Em]else your hearts must have the courage for the [D]changi[C]ng of the [G]guards
Peace will [Em]come
With [G]tranquility and [D]splendor on the wheels of [Em]fire
But will [C]bring us no [D]reward when her false idols [Em]fall
And cruel[G] death surr[D]enders with it's [Em]pale ghosts retreating
Between the [D]King and [C]Queen of [G]Swords
These are the chord shapes you would use when you have a capo on the first fret.
I think this makes the song much easyer.
