And I knew if I had my chance I went down to the sacred store. that I could make those people dance Where I heard the music years before. INtro outtro and maybe they'd be happy for a while. But the man there said the music wouldn't play. But February made me shiver And in the streets the children screamed, with every paper I'd delivered. the lovers cried and the poets dreamed. Bad news on the doorstep, But not a word was spoken. INtro outtro I couldn't take one more step. The church bells all were broken. I can't remember if I cried And the three men I admire most: when I read about his widowed bride. the father, Son and the Holy Ghost Something touched me deep inside, They caught the last train for the coast, M a de by K8B a l d w I N CHOrds By Ukulele Mike -Strums, even timing.

And there we were all in one place, Can music save your mortal soul? And can you teach me how to dance real slow? Well I know that you're in love with him in a coat he borrowed from James Dean and a voice that came from you and me Oh and while the king was looking down The players tried for a forward pass with the jester on the sidelines in a cast. Now, the half time air was sweet perfume Jack flash sat on a candlestick. and do you have faith in God above? and moss grows fat on a rolling stone. The birds flew off with a fallout shelter. A generation lost in space. 'Cause fire is the devil's only friend. If the Bible tells you so. But that's not how it used to be. Eight miles high and falling fast, With no time left, to start again. And as I watched him on the stage Now do you believe in rock and roll? When the jester sang for the King & Queen it landed foul on the grass. So come on, Jack be nimble, jack be quick, 'cause I saw you dancing in the gym, the jester stole his thorny crown while the seargeants played a marching tune. my hands were clenched in fists of rage. Made by K8Baldwin Verse Verse Verse Verse You both kicked off your shoes,man I dig those rhythm and blues! I was a lonely teenage broncin' buck, with a pink carnation and a pick-up truck. But I knew I was out of luck, The court room was adjourned no verdict was returned. And while Lennon read a book on Marx, the court kept practice in the park. and we sang dirges in the dark. We all got up to dance but we never got the chance. Cause the players tried to take the field, but the marching band refused to yield. Do you recall what was revealed, No angel born in hell could break that satan's spell. And as the flames climbed high into the night to light the sacrificial rite, I saw Satan laughing with delight. The day the music died. We started Singin So bye-bye, Miss American Pie. Drove my Chevy to the levee but the levee was dry.

9 Robert Hunter & Jerry GARCIA Scarlet Begonias As I was walking round Grosvenor Square. Not a chill to the winter but a nip to the air. She had rings on her fingers and bells on her shoes. And I knew without asking she was into the blues. In the thick of the evening when the dealing got rough, She was too pat to open and too cool to bluff. 9 Well there ain't nothing wrong with the way she moves, Scarlet begonias or a touch of the blues. The wind in the willows playing Tea for Two. The sky was yellow and the sun was blue. From the other direction she was calling my eye. It could be an illusion, but I might as well try, Might as well try. She wore scarlet begonias, tucked into her curls. I knew right away she was not like other girls, Other girls. As I picked up my matches and was closing the door, I had one of those flashes I had been there before, Been there begfore. And there's nothing wrong with the look that's in her eyes I had to learn the hard way to let her pass by, Let her pass by. Strangers stopping strangers just to shake their hand. Everybody is playing in the heart of gold band, Heart of gold band. Well I ain't often right but I've never been wrong. It seldom turns out the way it does in the song. 8 Once in a while you get shown the light, In the strangest of places if you look at it right.

Give or take a night or two Everybody knows you've been discreet. But there were so many people you just had to meet When you've done a line or two. Everybody knows the deal is rotten. Old black Joe's still picking cotton. Are just a shining artifact of the past. Everybody knows the scene is dead, But there's gonna be a meter on your bed. To the beach of Malibu. Everybody knows it's coming apart Take one last look at this sacred heart. E B Dm C Gm A 9 8 That's how it goes, And a long stem rose. Without your clothes. For your ribbon and bows, That will disclose Before it blows, Everybody knows. Everybody knows. And everybody knows. And everybody knows. What everybody knows. And everybody knows.
