It’s Alright, Ma By Bob Dylan






D/B
Darkness at the break of noon
D/A
Shadows even the silver spoon
D/C
The handmade blade, the child's balloon
D/B
Eclipses both the sun and moon
D/Bb
To understand you know too soon
                              riff
There is no sense in trying.

D/B
Pointed threats, they bluff with scorn
D/A
Suicide remarks are torn
D/C
From the fools gold mouthpiece
D/B
The hollow horn plays wasted words
D/Bb
Proved to warn

That he not busy being born
               riff
Is busy dying.

D/B
Temptation's page flies out the door
D/A
You follow, find yourself at war
D/C
Watch waterfalls of pity roar
D/B
You feel to moan but unlike before
D/Bb
You discover
D/Bb
That you'd just be
D/Bb
One more person crying.

D              A
So don't fear if you hear
D               G
A foreign sound to you ear
D    A G      A   D                 Riff
It's alright, Ma, I'm only sighing.
