Intro
(h
ammering onto the 4th string at the 2nd fret)
Verse 1
You must leave now, take what you need, you
think will
last
But what
ever you wish to keep, you
better
grab it fast
Yonder stands your
orphan with his
gun
Crying like a
fire in the
sun
Look out the saints are
coming
through
And
it's all over
now, Baby
Blue.
Verse 2
The highway is for gamblers,
better
use your sense.
Take what you have gathered
from co
incidence.
The
empty-handed
painter from your
streets
Is
drawing crazy
patterns on your
sheets.
The sky, too, is folding
under
you
And
it's all over
now, Baby
Blue.
Verse 3
All your seasick sailors,
they are
rowing home.
Your
empty handed armies,
they're all
going home.
Your
lover who
just walked out the
door
Has
taken all his
blankets from the
floor.
The
carpet, too, is moving
under
you
And
it's all over
now, Baby
Blue.
[Harmonica Solo]
Verse 4
Leave your
stepping stones behind, now
something that
calls for you.
For
get the dead you've left, they
will not
follow you.
The
vagabond who's
rapping at your
door
Is
standing in the
clothes that you once
wore.
Strike another match, go
start a
new
And
it's all over
now, Baby
Blue.
