License To Kill by Bob Dylan

--------------- ------------

Transcribed by MH from Bob Dylan's (best!) album, "Infidels".

I have written this in the key of C so it can be easily transposed: to

play it in the original key (F#) put a capo on fret 6.

Modifications/discussions welcome.

** The chords marked Fmaj7 and Csus4 I play as (xx3210) and (x33010),

respectively.

*** The chord sequences for verses 2, 3 and 4 are the same as verse 1.

VERSE 1

C Am

Man thinks 'cause he rules the earth

G C

He can do with it as he please

C Am G

And if things don't change soon, he will

F C

Oh, man has invented his doom

C C G F

First step was touching the moon

Am F Am F

Now there's a woman on my block

Am F Am F

She just sit there as the night grow still

C G C Fmaj7 Csus4 C **

She say who gonna take away his license to kill

VERSE 2 ***

Now, they take him and they teach him

And they groom him for life

And they set him on a path where he's bound to get ill

Then they bury him with stars

Sell his body like they do used cars

Now there's a woman on my block

She just sit there facin' the hill

She say who gonna take away his license to kill

VERSE 3

Now, he's hell bent for destruction

He's afraid and confused

And his brain has been mismanaged with great skill

All he believes are his eyes

And his eyes they just tell him lies

But there's a woman on my block

Sitting there in a cold chill

She say who gonna take away his license to kill

Am

May be noisemaker, spirit maker

C

Heartbreaker, backbreaker

F C

Leave no stone unturned

Am

May be an actor in a plot

C

That might be all that you got

Dm G

Till your error you clearly learn

VERSE 4

Now he worships at an altar of a stagnant pool

And when he sees his reflection he's fulfilled

Oh, man is opposed to fair play

He wants it all and he wants it his way

Now, there's a woman on my block

She just sit there as the night grow still

She say who gonna take away his license to kill

(instrumental verse)
