ON THE ROAD AGAIN (Bob Dylan, Bringing it All Back Home, 3/22/1965)

pulled off on the 4th beat. Fast tempo; follow the recording.)
[Intro]
  A    A    A    Ax2
[Verse]
AWell, I wake up in the morning, there's frogs inside my socks
AYour mama, she's hidin' inside the icebox
DYour daddy walks in wearin' a Napoleon Bonaparte Amask
Then you Eask why I don't live hereD  
DHoney, do you have to aAsk?
[Verse]
AWell, I go to pet your monkey, I get a face full of claws
AI ask then who's in the fireplace and you tell me, "Santa Claus"
DThe milkman comes in, he's wearing a derby hatA  
Then you Eask why I don't live hereD  
DHoney, how come you have to ask me tAhat?
[Verse]
AWell, I ask for something to eat, I'm hungry as a hog
ASo I get brown rice, seaweed, and a dirty hot dog
DI got a hole where my stomach disapApeared
Then you Eask why I don't live hereD  
DHoney, I gotta think you're really wAeird
[Verse]
AYour grandpa's cane, it turns into a sword
AYour grandma prays to pictures that are pasted on a board
DEverything inside my pockets your uncle Asteals
Then you Eask why I don't live hereD  
DHoney, I can't believe that you're for rAeal
[Instrumental]

AWell, there's fist fights in the kitchen
AThey're enough to make me cry

DEven the butler, he's got something to Aprove
Then you Eask why I don't live hereD  
DHoney, how come you don't Amove?
