  21 <p>Dylan is at the piano, hence the (black) key. A fair guess is that the
  22 guitars are capoed on the fourth fret. That would give the chords E
  23 (which is actually an E7-10 = 022133), B7 and A9 (x02000)</p>

  37 Well, my temperature rises and my feet can't walk so hot
  38 Yes, my temperature rises and my feet can't walk so hot
  39 Well, this Arabian doctor comes in, gives me a shot
  40 But he wouldn't tell me what it was that I got
  41
  42 Well, this woman I've got, she's killin' me alive
  43 Yes, this woman I've got, she's killin' me alive
  44 She's makin' me into an old man,
  45 and man I'm not even 25

  47 Of course, you're gonna think this song is a riff
  48 I know you're gonna think this song is just a riff
