Blood in My Eyes

(traditional, arranged by Bob Dylan)
Released on World Gone Wrong (1993)
Tabbed by Eyolf Østrem

Capo 2nd fret (Original key D major)

The chord I’ve called “G7” (G6sus4add7/C, to be precise) could have been called Csus4maj7, or even some F-chord variant, but I consider it functionally as a dominant, hence a G, even though a G is hardly sounding in the chord. What’s in a name anyway? Sometimes it is replaced by an F.

Chords:

C        x32010
Csus4    x33010
F        133211
"G7"     x33000

  C    Csus4  F    "G7"

No, no, ma'am, I can't wait,
You got my money, now you're trying to break this date.
Hey, hey, babe, I got blood in my eyes for you,
Hey, hey, babe, I got blood in my eyes for you.
I got blood in my eyes for you, babe, I don't care what in the world you do.

I tell you something, tell you the facts,
You don't want me, give my money back.
Hey, hey, babe, I got blood in my eyes for you,
Hey, hey, babe, I got blood in my eyes for you.
I got blood in my eyes for you, babe, I don't care what in the world you do.
