Cold Irons Bound
Words and music by Bob Dylan
Released on Time out of Mind (1997)
Tabbed by noturb
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Time out of Mind version
Capo 6th fret (original key Bb major).
The “Bbdim” is only a faint approximation to the wealth of notes sounding at this point
(and never twice the same, it seems). A chord like x12300 or x12202 captures that fairly
well, but there are really no “correct” chords here!
The same goes for the other two chords – basically tonic, fifth and a lot of blue notes.

I'm beginning to hear voices and there's no one around
now I'm all used up and the fields have turned brown
I went to church on Sunday and she passed by
and my love for her is taking such a long time to die
Lord I'm waist deep, waist deep in the mist
It's almost like, almost like I don't exist
I'm 20 miles out of town, Cold Irons bound
