Artist - Bob Dylan
Album - The Basement Tapes
Song Title - I'm Not There(1956)
The timing is rather unorthodox so listen to the song to help figure it out.
*Capo 4th Fret 
Intro:    G    C/G    G  C/  G  G  
Ev'ry thing's all Gright
And then she's Fall the time in my neighborhood
She Amcries both day and night
I know it G'cause she was there
It's a Gmilestone but she's Fdown on her luck
And the Amday makes her lonely
And it'Gs so hard to buck, I was there
I beClieve that she'd stop him if she'Emd fine time to care
I beFlieve that she'd look upon besiCde 'em and care
And I'd gFo by her now and she's on my wayC  
                         G    C/G    G  C/  G          G  
But I don't belong there
No I Gdon't belong to her
I don't belFong to anybody
She's my Amprize forsaken angel
But she don'Gt hear me cry
She's a lGone-hearted mystic 
And she Fcan carry on
When I'm Amthere, she's all right
But she's Gnot when I'm gone
Heaven knCows she's the answer she Emdon't call on no one
She's a wFave, a thing of beauty sheC's mine for the one
And I'm nCot hesitating by temptaEmtion lest it runs
Which she Fdon't follow me but I'm Gnot there, I'm gone
Now I'll Gcry tonight, like I Fcried the night before
And I'll Amfeast on her eyes but I'll dGream about the door
So Glong, Jesus, savior, blinFd faith worth to tell
                                  Am      G    C/G    G  C/G  
It don't have consolation she's my love far thee well
Her Csmile is contagious I was Emborn to love her
But she Fknows that the kingdom waits so Chigh above her
And I Crun but I race but it's Emnot too fast or soon
I'll tFry and not deceive her I'm not Gthere, I'm gone
It's Gall about confusion and FI cry for her pale
I don't Amneed anybody now bGeside me to tell
Cause it's Gall affirmation I've Frecieved but it's not
I Amwish I was beside but I'm not Gthere I'm gone

Ev'ry thing's all right

And then she's all the time in my neighborhood

But I don't belong there

No I don't belong to her

I don't belong to anybody

She's my prize forsaken angel

But she don't hear me cry

She's a lone-hearted mystic

And she can carry on

When I'm there, she's all right

But she's not when I'm gone

C Em

Heaven knows she's the answer she don't call on no one
