    Lyrics:
    Hey! Mr. Tambourine man, play a song for me
    I'm not sleepy and there is no place I'm going to
    Hey! Mr. Tambourine man, play a song for me
    In the jingle jangle morning I'll come following you
    Though I know that evening's empire has returned into sand
    Vanished from my hand
    Left me blindly here to stand but still not sleeping
    My weariness amazes me, I'm branded on my feet
    I have no one to meet
    And the ancient empty street's too dead for dreaming
    Hey! Mr. Tambourine man, play a song for me
    I'm not sleepy and there is no place I'm going to
    Hey! Mr. Tambourine man, play a song for me
    In the jingle jangle morning I'll come following you
    Take me on a trip upon your magic swirling ship
    My senses have been stripped
    My hands can't feel to grip
    My toes too numb to step
    Wait only for my boot heels to be wandering
    I'm ready to go anywhere, I'm ready for to fade
    Into my own parade
    Cast your dancing spell my way, I promise to go under it
    Hey! Mr. Tambourine man, play a song for me
    I'm not sleepy and there is no place I'm going to
    Hey! Mr. Tambourine man, play a song for me
    In the jingle jangle morning I'll come following you
    Though you might hear laughing, spinning, swinging madly across the sun
    It's not aimed at anyone
    It's just escaping on the run
    And but for the sky there are no fences facing
    And if you hear vague traces of skipping reels of rhyme
    To your tambourine in time
    It's just a ragged clown behind
    I wouldn't pay it any mind
    It's just a shadow you're seeing that he's chasing
    Hey! Mr. Tambourine man, play a song for me
    I'm not sleepy and there is no place I'm going to
    Hey! Mr. Tambourine man, play a song for me
    In the jingle jangle morning I'll come following you
    And take me disappearing through the smoke rings of my mind
    Down the foggy ruins of time
    Far past the frozen leaves
    The haunted frightened trees
    Out to the windy beach
    Far from the twisted reach of crazy sorrow
    Yes, to dance beneath the diamond sky
    With one hand waving free
    Silhouetted by the sea
    Circled by the circus sands
    With all memory and fate
    Driven deep beneath the waves
    Let me forget about today until tomorrow
    Hey! Mr. Tambourine man, play a song for me
    I'm not sleepy and there is no place I'm going to
    Hey! Mr. Tambourine man, play a song for me
    In the jingle jangle morning I'll come following you

Moreover, it often carries a repressed knowledge that the object of longing might never be had again. from Wikipedia - a perfect description of the feeling this song brings.

      Did millions of other peope take acid and then simply go back to their day jobs and subsequently not write a song that will last millienia? Definitely. That's the difference.
      Dylan was such a creative genius in the 60s.
      Reads a newspaper, writes Lonesome Death of Hattie Carrol, Hard Rain, Only a Pawn in their Game etc etc.
      Takes acid, writes Chimes of Freedom and Mr Tambourine Man.

    I was very lucky to buy a stash of books about Bob Dylan from the estate of a deceased musician in Cape Town, South Africa. I looked up their value online and his book "Lyrics 1962 - 1985" is now going for $ 700. I consider myself a rich man tho I have no cash, and I will NEVER sell this book. It is worth a million bucks to me.

    I was in a songwriting class in college, and someone asked if they were going to be okay in the class if they couldn't really sing. The teacher, the lead singer from Good Morning Maxfield, said "Well Bob Dylan couldn't really sing and he turned out alright."

    [Chorus]
    Hey Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me
    I'm not sleepy and there is no place I'm going to
    Hey Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me
    In the jingle jangle mornin' I'll come followin' you
    [Verse 1]
    Though I know that evening's empire has returned into sand
    Vanished from my hand
    Left me blindly here to stand, but still not sleeping
    My weariness amazes me, I am branded on my feet
    I have no one to meet
    And my ancient empty street's too dead for dreaming
    [Chorus]
    Hey Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me
    I'm not sleepy and there is no place I'm going to
    Hey Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me
    In the jingle jangle mornin' I'll come followin' you
    [Verse 2]
    Take me on a trip upon your magic swirlin' ship
    My senses have been stripped, my hands can't feel to grip
    My toes too numb to step, wait only for my boot heels
    To be wandering
    I'm ready to go anywhere, I'm ready for to fade
    Into my own parade, cast your dancin' spell my way
    I promise to go under it
    [Chorus]
    Hey Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me
    I'm not sleepy and there is no place I'm going to
    Hey Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me
    In the jingle jangle mornin' I'll come followin' you
    [Verse 3]
    Though you might hear laughing, spinning, swinging madly across the sun
    It's not aimed at anyone, it's just escaping on the run
    And but for the sky there are no fences facing
    And if you hear vague traces of skipping reels of rhyme
    To your tambourine in time, it's just a ragged clown behind
    I wouldn't pay it any mind
    It's just a shadow you're seeing that he's chasing
    [Chorus]
    Hey Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me
    I'm not sleepy and there is no place I'm going to
    Hey Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me
    In the jingle jangle mornin' I'll come followin' you
    [Verse 4]
    And take me disappearing through the smoke rings of my mind
    Down the foggy ruins of time, far past the frozen leaves
    The haunted, frightened trees, out to the windy beach
    Far from the twisted reach of crazy sorrow
    Yes, to dance beneath the diamond sky with one hand waving free
    Silhouetted by the sea, circled by the circus sands
    With all memory and fate driven deep beneath the waves
    Let me forget about today until tomorrow
    [Chorus]
    Hey Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me

      Forget these wankers who commented on your post. The reason it makes you cry, is indeed because it is beautiful. But it is more than that. It is from the perspective of the forlorn and empty, hopeful towards the future, yet nostalgic of the past. Not every line makes 'sense' in a rational manner, but together they evoke a feeling of sad resignation and glimmer of hope simultaneously. It is not in any way political. It transcends that. It is about the journey of life, written for those of us who love all the little sweet things, or deep good things, that come and go, while knowing we can do little to prevent or restrain it.

    1965...The first time I heard this tune was when the Byrds recorded it. I know Bob wrote it and did it first, but I wasn't into folk music back then. Even though I knew he was a prolific songwriter I really didn't start listening to Dylan until after the release of the "Hurricane" song on the Desire Album (1976). From that point on, I've been a huge fan, and instead of just listening to other artists singing his songs I also started listening & purchasing his albums. Most definitely a Musical Genius.

    The last verse encapsulates the entire existential position of human kind.
    Dylan was like Bach in the sense that you really truly believe he was touched by some divine intervention. No mortal human could create art this good.

    I was talking to my mother about if we could buy a tambourine a while ago and my father told me about this song. He told me to listen to it but since I was not a fan of Dylan at that time I did not want to listen to it. While on a trip I fell in love with this song after I listened to it once. Thanks father for bringing this song into my life.

    As many masterful albums Bob Dylan has recorded, Bringing It All Back Home is the MASTERPIECE.

      Incidentally, Like A Rolling Stone is number 1 on Rolling Stone Magazine’s best 500 songs. It’s not Tambourine
      Man but I imagine that one isn’t far behind.

    "...to dance beneath the diamond sky with one hand waving free..."
    David Crosby has said that Roger McGuinn brought a tape of this song in to the studio when it was brand new. McGuinn thought it would be a great song for The Byrds to cover. When Crosby heard that it was a Dylan song, he was unenthusiastic. He said that he just could never get past Dylan's singing voice.
    Then McGuinn played the song for the assembled group. And when Dylan got to the line, "...to dance beneath the diamond sky with one hand waving free...", Crosby says he thought to himself, "Yeah, OK, I get it. The guy is REALLY GOOD".
    And then he said he thought to himself, "Damn! I wish I had written that..."

      To Rocky Racoon I agree whole heartly with all you wrote in your reply to the Bob Dylan's song Mr Tambourine Man Bob Dylan' was a genius writing a song in 2 days at the age of 23 his music "Rocks"!!!

      And although The Byrds had the big hit, I think the original is the real deal. I don't feel this way about every Dylan song.

    When I first heard this on the radio in 88, I had to get Bob's Greatest Hits vol.1 on cassette. Wore out 3 copies. Was in high school & felt lost because my parents also divorced in 88. Bob in a way helped me find my way with his music. Thanks, Bob.

    BEST. VERSION. OF. THIS. SONG. HE. EVER. SANG (straight off the album). And oh, that sweet mouth harp!!! I've loved this version of this song for close to half a century now. Truly one of the greatest songs from the latter half of the 20th century.

      Yes! His delivery is entrancing. The way he sort of rocks back and forth with each line. So relaxing and beautiful.

      I think the '64 Folk Festival version is superior, though the margins between the two versions are thin. This version might have an extra verse, but the FF version has delivery, harmony and soul like few Dylan recordings do.

    The perfect song, professing a longing for transcendence from situations and problems. It's a bit like David in the Psalms (55: 6) when he is on the run from Saul and says, "Oh that I had wings like a dove! Then I would fly away and be at rest!"
