Quinn, The Mighty Eskimo
Bob Dylan 

A  D2 C2 (x2)
          A                            D2   C2  A       D2     C2
            Well, everybody's building their boats
            Some are building monuments, others jotting down notes
            Everybody's in despair, every girl and boy
                             A                           E2                                                            D2
            But when Quinn the Eskimo gets here, everybody's gonna jump for joy

                               A                         E2                 A
                        Oh, come all without, come all within
                                                E2                     D2        A
                        You'll not see nothin' like the Mighty Quinn
                        Come all without, come all within
                        You'll not see nothin' like the Mighty Quinn

            Oh, everyone like to do just like the rest, you know I like my sugar sweet
            Double cubes and makin' haste, you know it ain't my cup of mead
            Everybody's out there feeling like pidgeons out on a limb
            But when Quinn the Eskimo gets here, the pidgeons gonna run to him

                        Oh, come all without, come all within
                        Yeah, you'll not see nothin' like the Mighty Quinn
                        Come all without, come all within
                        You'll not see nothin' like the Mighty Quinn- oh, guitar now
                                             *Solo*   (verse & chorus)

            Cast me in or cast me out, you know I can recite them all
            Tell me where it a hurts you honey, I'll tell ya who to call
            Nobody can get any sleep, there's someone on everybody's toes
            But when Quinn the Eskimo gets here, everybody's gonna want to dose

                        Oh, come all without, come all within
                        You'll not see nothin' like the Mighty Quinn
                        Oh, come all without, come all within
                        You'll not see nothin' like the Mighty Quinn...
