                Ain't Talking (Alternate Version) – Bob Dylan
E|E|E|E|--------------------------

E|----------------------------------

E|---------------|||| 

Written by: Bob Dylan
Recorded in 2006
From: "The Bootleg Series Vol. 08: 
Tell Tale Signs. Rare and Unreleased
1989-2006 [Disc 2]"

Tabbed by: maguri
Tuning: Standard

Great alternate version: different 
key, different lyrics.
The song was reworked and finished 
for "Modern Times".
The "Modern Times" recording is in 
Abm and the second chord
in the verses (here D7) is indeed a 
minor chord. The major chord
in this early version sounds strange
 and beautiful. Enjoy!

[Verse 1]
   Am
As I walked out tonight in the 
mystic garden
    Am
The wounded flowers were dangling 
from the vines
      D7
I was passing by yon cool and 
crystal fountain
Am
  Someone hit me from behind
      Am
Ain't talkin', just walkin'
        Am
Through this weary world of woe
      Am
Heart burnin', still yearnin'
   Em          G           Am
No one on earth would ever know


[Verse 2]
         Am
They say prayer has the power to 
help
                 Am
So pray from the mother
       Am
In the human heart an evil spirit 
can dwell
              D7
I'm trying to love my neighbor and 
do good unto others
        Am
But oh, mother, things ain't going 
well

      Am
Ain't talkin', just walkin'
     Am                 D7        
I'll burn that bridge before you 
    Am
get across
      Am
Heart burnin', still yearnin'
         Em          G            
There'll be no mercy for you once 
       Am
you've lost


[Verse 3]
Am
  I'm all worn out by weepin'
   Am
My eyes are full of tears and my 
lips are dry
     D7
If I ever catch my opponents 
sleepin'
     Am
I'll slaughter them where they lie
      Am
Ain't talkin', just walkin'
            Am       [D7]        
Through the world mysterious and 
Am
vague
      Am
Heart burnin', still yearnin'
Em                  G             
Walking through the cities of the 
Am
plague


[Verse 4]
    Am
The whole world is filled with 
speculation
    Am
The whole wide world which people 
say is round
         D7
I got no time for idle conversation
  Am
I need to find a doctor in this town
      Am
Ain't talkin', just walkin'
    Am
All roads leadin to the west
      Am
Heart burnin' – still yearnin'
          Em            G      
I’m gonna throw myself upon your 
         Am
lovin’ breast

[Verse 5]
       Am
It’s a fresh new day of a brand and 
a glorious autums
    Am
The queen of love is coming across 
the grass
      D7
[?] they call her anything but Madam
       Am
No-one flirts with her of even winks
 a pass [?]
      Am
Ain't talkin', just walkin'
Am          D7                Am
Standing outside the gates of wrath
      Am
Heart burnin', still yearnin'
Em                   G           
Take a little trip down the 
    Am
primrose path


[Verse 6]
          Am
I got the worst old [?] feeling and 
it’s getting stronger
        Am
I’m all out with public service, I’m
 beginning to crack
  D7
I won’t stay up any longer
       Am
I’ll revenge my father’s death and 
I’ll step back
      Am
Ain't talkin', just walkin'
             Am
Hand me down my walking cane
      Am
Heart burnin', still yearnin'
Em                        
Trying to get you out of my 
  G         Am
miserable brain


[Verse 7]
   Am
As I walked out tonight in the 
mystic garden
    Am
The wounded flowers were dangling 
from the vines
      D7
I was passing by yon cool and 
crystal fountain
        Am
Someone hit me from behind
      Am
Ain't talkin', just walkin'
       Am
You’re ridin’ high and down you go
      Am
Heart burnin', still yearnin'
   Em     G                Am
No one on earth would ever know
