Tough Mama Bob Dylan -classic Bob Dylan and The Band from the album Planet Waves- D Bm Tough Mama, A meat shaking on your bones D Bm A I'm gonna take you down to the river and get you stoned. Bm A Sister's on the highway with that steel driving crew Bm F#m Em G Papa's in the big house her working days are through C G A Tough Mama, can I blow a little smoke on you? D Bm Dark Beauty, A Won't you move it on over and make some room? D Bm A It's my duty to bring you down to the field where the flowers bloom. Bm A Ashes in the furnace, dust on the rise, Bm F#m Em G You came through it all the way, flyin' through the skies. C G A Dark Beauty With that long night's journey in your eyes. D Bm Sweet Goddess, A born of a blinding light and a changing wind, D Bm A Now, don't be modest, you know who you are and where you've been. Bm A Jack the Cowboy went up north He's buried in your past. Bm F#m Em G The Lone Wolf went out drinking That was over pretty fast. C G A Sweet Goddess Your perfect stranger's comin' in at last. D Bm Silver Angel, A with the badge of the lonesome road sewed in your sleeve, D Bm A I'd be grateful if this golden ring you would receive. Bm A Today on the countryside it was a-hotter than a crotch, Bm F#m Em G I stood alone upon the ridge and all I did was watch. C G A Sweet Goddess It must be time to carve another notch. D Bm I'm crestfallen, A the world of illusion is at my door, D Bm A I ain't haulin' any of my lambs to the marketplace anymore. Bm A The prison walls are crumblin', there is no end in sight, Bm F#m Em G I've gained some recognition but I lost my appetite. C G A Dark Beauty Meet me at the border late tonight. D Bm A D Bm A Bm A Bm F#m Em G C G A
