Bob Dylan - I Dreamed I Saw St. Augustine
Album: John Wesley Harding (12/27/1967)
Intro: F Bb F
F Bb
I dreamed I saw St. Augustine,
Bb F
Alive as you or me,
F
Tearing through these quarters
Gm Bb
In the utmost misery,
F
With a blanket underneath his arm
Bb
And a coat of solid gold,
F Em Dm C
Searching for the very souls
Bb Gm F
Whom already have been sold.
F
"Arise, arise," he cried so loud,
Bb F
In a voice without restraint,
F
"Come out, ye gifted kings and queens
Gm Bb
And hear my sad complaint.
F
No martyr is among ye now
Bb
Whom you can call your own,
Bb F Em Dm C
So go on your way accordingly
C Bb Gm F
But know you're not alone."

F
I dreamed I saw St. Augustine,
Bb F
Alive with fiery breath,
F
And I dreamed I was amongst the ones
Gm Bb
That put him out to death.
Bb F
Oh, I awoke in anger,
F Bb
So alone and terrified,
Bb F Em Dm C
I put my fingers against the glass
C Bb Gm F
And bowed my head and cried.
