Not Dark Yet [E] - Bob Dylan
Originally in E, but better on the ukulele in C, Bb, G or F
[intro] [E]
E A E
Shadows are falling and I've been here all day
E A E
It's too hot to sleep and time is running away
B B7 G#m E
Feel like my soul has turned into steel
C#m B A E
I've still got the scars that the sun didn't heal
B B7 G#m E
There's not even room enough to be anywhere
C#m B A E
It's not dark yet, but it's getting there
E A E
Well my sense of humanity is going down the drain
E A E
Behind every beautiful thing, there's been some kind of pain
B B7 G#m E
She wrote me a letter and she wrote it so kind
C#m B A E
She put down in writin' what was in her mind
B B7 G#m E
I just don't see why I should even care
C#m B A E
It's not dark yet, but it's getting there
E A E
Well I been to London and I been to gay Paris
E A E
I followed the river and I got to the sea
B B7 G#m E
I've been down on the bottom of a whirlpool of lies
C#m B A E
I ain't lookin' for nothin' in anyone's eyes
B B7 G#m E
Sometimes my burden is more than I can bear
C#m B A E
It's not dark yet, but it's getting there
[Instrumental over verse chords]
E A E
I was born here and I'll die here, against my will
E A E
I know it looks like I'm movin' but I'm standin' still
B B7 G#m E
Every nerve in my body is so naked and numb
C#m B A E
I can't even remember what it was I came here to get away from
B B7 G#m E
Don't even hear the murmur of a prayer
C#m B A E
It's not dark yet, but it's getting there
