Narrow Way

Bob Dylan

Transposer:

Intro:       Verse 1: I’ll go walk across the desert until I’m by fried by fire. I won’t think about what I left behind. Another ’tracter in her way I can call my own. Go back home leave me alone. It’s a long road it’s a long and narrow way But I can’t work up to you you’ll surely have work down to me some day. Bridge:       Verse 2: Ever since the critics burned the White House down There’s a bleedin’ wound in the heart of town. I saw you drinkin’ from an empty cup. I saw you buried and I saw you you dug up. It’s a long road it’s a long and narrow way      >Aadd I can’t work up to you you’ll surely have work down to me some day. Bridge:       Verse 3: Look down angel from the skies help my weary soul to rise. I kissed the cheek I dragged your plough. You broke my heart I was your friend until now. It’s a long road it’s a long and narrow way      >Aadd I can’t work up to you you’ll surely have work down to me some day. Bridge:       Verse 4: In the courtyard of the Golden Sun. You stand and fight or you break and run. You went and lost your lovely head for a drink of wine and a crust of bread. It’s a long road it’s a long and narrow way If I can’t work up to you you’ll surely have work down to me some day. Bridge:       Verse 5: We looted and we plundered long distant shores. Why is my share not equal to yours? Your father left you your mother too. Even death has washed his hands of you. It’s a long road it’s a long and narrow way      >Aadd I can’t work up to you you’ll surely have work down to me some day. Bridge:       Verse 6: This is hard country to stay alive in. Blades are everywhere and they are breakin’ my skin. I’m armed to the hilt and I’m struggling’ hard. You won’t get out of here unscarred. It’s a long road it’s a long and narrow way      >Aadd I can’t work up to you you’ll surely have work down to me some day. Bridge:       Verse 7: You’ve got too many lovers wailin’ at the wall. If I had a thousand tons I couldn’t count ’em all. Yesterday I could’ve put them all in the sea. Today even one may be too much for me. It’s a long road it’s a long and narrow way      >Aadd I can’t work up to you you’ll surely have work down to me some day. Bridge:       Verse 8: Cake walkin’ baby you can do no wrong. Put your arms around me where they belong. I want to take ya on a rollercoaster ride. Lay my hands all over ya.  Tie ya to my side. It’s a long road it’s a long and narrow way      >Aadd I can’t work up to you you’ll surely have work down to me some day. Bridge:       Verse 9: I got a heavy stacked woman with a smile on her face. And she is proud my soul to grace. I’ve saved her from an arrow and pierced my chest. I’m gonna have to take my head and bury it between her breasts. It’s a long road it’s a long and narrow way      >Aadd I can’t work up to you you’ll surely have work down to me some day. Bridge:       Verse 10: ’Been dark all night but now it’s dawn. The moving finger is movin’ on. You can garden here while I sleep. Kiss away the tears I weep. It’s a long road it’s a long and narrow way      >Aadd I can’t work up to you you’ll surely have work down to me some day. Bridge:       Verse 11: I love a woman and she loves me. We’ve been to the west and we’re goin’ back again. I heard a voice at the dusk of day. Say "Be gentle brother. Be gentle and pray." It’s a long road it’s a long and narrow way      >Aadd I can’t work up to you you’ll surely have work down to me some day. Outro:

Cette chanson évoque un voyage difficile et solitaire, parsemé d’obstacles et de joies éphémères. L’artiste parle de ses luttes personnelles et des déceptions qui l’entourent, reflétant une quête d’authenticité dans un monde où les relations et les ambitions peuvent sembler inaccessibles. Les images de souffrance et d'espoir se mêlent, suggérant que malgré les épreuves, il y a une aspiration à la compréhension et à la connexion avec l'autre. Dans ce contexte, on ressent une tension permanente entre l'individu et les attentes des autres, ainsi qu'une réflexion sur les choix et les sacrifices que l'on fait dans la vie. Il illustre parfaitement le cheminement humain, avec ses hauts et ses bas, invitant à prendre du recul et à prier pour une guidance divine face aux épreuves quotidiennes.
