"You Won't Have to Cry"

I listened to Mr. Tambourine Man yester-day and noticed a handful of small features.

In the lines "Then, girl, you will see / That you won't have to cry / Anymore" in "You Won't Have to Cry," the "-more" of "Anymore" is sung with a melisma (E D#), giving a sense of its meaning.

Specific to the alternate version that's included as a bonus track on the CD, "strong" in the line "'Cause my love for you's too strong" is also sung with a melisma (in the harmony part:  B A), giving a sense of degree (for "too").

"You Won't Have to Cry"

This morning, I figured out the chords for "You Won't Have to Cry" and noticed an interesting feature of the structure.  For almost all of the song, each chord lasts at least one measure (the chord at the end of each verse lasts two measures).  Aside from the introduction, the one exception to this is in the bridge.  Underneath the words "many, many" in the line "Because he told you so many, many lies," the chords last for only half a measure.  In other words, there are more chords per measure here than in any other part of the song (again, excepting the introduction), and this higher concentration of chords mirrors the abundance of those "many, many lies."
