This Wheel's on Fire
Bob Dylan and the Band
The Basement Tapes
[Verse]
Am
If your me mory serves you well
Bdim7
We were goin' to meet again and wait
E
So I'm go in to unpack all my things
F Dm Am
And sit before it gets too late
C Am
No man alive will come to you
C Am
With another tale to tell
C Am
But you know that we shall meet again
F Dm Am
If your me ory serves you well
[refrain]
Dm F C G G7
This wheel's on fire, rolling down the road
C G F C
Best notify my next of kin
F G A
This wheel shall explode
[Verse]
Am
If your memory serves you well
Bdim7
I was goin' to confiscate your lace
E
And wrap it up in a sailor's knot
F Dm Am
And hide it in your case
C Am
If I knew for sure that it was yours
C Am
But it was oh so hard to tell
C Am
But you knew that we would meet again
F Dm Am
If your memory serves you well
[refrain]
Dm F C G G7
This wheel's on fire, rolling down the road
C G F C
Best notify my next of kin
F G A
This wheel shall explode
[Verse]
Am
If your memory serves you well
Bdim7
You'll remember you're the one
E
That called on me to call on them
F Dm Am
To get you your favors done
C Am
And after every plan had failed
C Am
And there was nothing more to tell
C Am
You knew that we would meet again
F Dm Am
If your memory served you well
[refrain]
Dm F C G G7
This wheel's on fire, rolling down the road
C G F C
Best notify my next of kin
F G A
This wheel shall explode
