Far From Me [Mydland]
You say you want to try again,
wear it down between the lines
Well, I have a better end
in mind it doesn't seem to really have you
Close your eyes to see though
I know you don't mean to be
You are so far from me
There was something I had
caught inside screaming hard
to make it go
And tied me down low, it
doesn't seem you really have to
Close you eyes to see, you've
been all you'll be to me
Though I know you don't
mean to be, it's just too late
And we can't relate at all
This is the last time I wanna
say so long
This song is my last song
for you
There's just nothing here
to hold on to
Baby, nothing to hold on
to
Feel Like A Stranger
[Weir/Barlow]
Inside you're burnin',
I can see clear through.
Your eyes tell more than
you mean them to
Lit up and flashin',
like the reds and blues
Out there on the neon avenue
Well I,
feel like a stranger (feel like a stranger)
Well the music's thunderin',
you're reckless and hot
You keep firin' glances
across the room
And I can't stop wonderin'
just what you got
Get the feeling I'm going
to find out real soon
But I feel like a stranger
(just like a stranger)
You know it's gonna stranger,
So let's get on with the show, let's go
Yes, and the wheels been
smokin 'round midnight
You shoot me a look that
says "Let's go"
Yes, and it feels about
like running a red light
Now there ain't no
point in looking behind us, no!
Still I feel like
a stranger (feel like a stranger)
You know it's gonna get
stranger, some things we just know.
Ooh,
feel like a stranger.
Ooh,
just like a, just
like a stranger.
Feel like a stranger, Feel
like a stranger
Feel like a stranger, Feel
like a stranger
Been a long, long, crazy,
crazy night (crazy night)
Feel like a stranger (long,
long, crazy, crazy night) [adlib]
Fever [Davenport/Cooley]
Never know how much I love you,
never know how much I care.
When you put your arms around
me I get a fever that's
so hard to break
Give me fever. Fever when you
hold me tight.
Fever in the morning, fever all
through the night.
The sun lights up the day, the
moon lights up the night.
I light up when you call me name
cause I know you gonna
treat me right
Fever, fever, give me kisses,
fever when you hold me tight.
Fever, in the morning, fever all
through the night.
Fever, crazy like the fever, that
is something you all know.
Fever isn't such a new thing,
fever started long ago.
Captain Smith like Pokahannis,
in the very mad affair.
When her daddy tried to kill her,
she said, "Daddy, oh don't you dare"
You give me fever, fever when
you hold me tight.
Fever, in the morning, fever all
through the night.
Romeo love Juliet, Juliet she failed
to save.
When he put his arms around her
he said "Julie better hold on t'faith"
Fever, fever with our kisses,
fever with our planning, fever.
I'm a wide duck, the fever in
my mind was you.
Now, you listen to my story, here's
the point that I have made.
Chicks are born to give you fever,
get bear hives then they break.
They give you fever with their
kisses, fever when they hold you tight.
Fever, in the morning, fever all
through the night.
Fire On The Mountain
[Garcia/Hunter] (GDA)
Long distance runner, what
you standin' there for?
Get up, get out, get out
of the door.
You're playin' cold music
on the barroom floor,
Drowned in your laughter
and dead to the core.
There's a dragon with matches
that's loose on the town.
Takes a whole pail of water
just to cool him down.
[Chorus]
Fire, fire on the mountain.
4x
Almost ablaze, still you
don't feel the heat.
It takes all you got just
to stay on the beat.
You say it's a livin'; we
all gotta eat.
But you're here alone; there's
no one to compete.
If Mercy's in bus'ness,
I wish it for you.
More than just ashes when
your dreams come true.
[Chorus]
[Jam]
Long distance runner, what
you holdin' out for?
Caught in slow motion in
a dash to the door.
The flame from your stage
has now spread to the floor.
You gave all you had. Why
you want to give more?
The more that you give,
the more it will take
To the thin line beyond
which you really can't fake.
[Chorus]
Foolish Heart [Garcia/Hunter]
Carve your name, carve your
name in ice and wind.
Search for where, search
for where the rivers end
Or where the rivers start.
Do everything that's in
you you feel to be your part,
But never give your love,
my friend,
Unto a foolish heart, unto
a foolish heart.
Dare to leap, leap from ledges
high and wild.
Learn to speak, speak with
wisdom like a child
Directly to the heart.
Crown yourself the king
of clowns, or stand way back apart,
But never give your love,
my friend,
Unto a foolish heart, unto
a foolish heart.
Shun a friend, shun a brother
and a friend.
Never look, never look around
the bend,
Or check the weather charts.
Sign the Mona Lisa with
a spray can, call it art,
But never give your love,
my friend,
Unto a foolish heart, unto
a foolish heart.
[Bridge]
A foolish heart will call
on you to toss your dreams away.
Then turn
around and blame you, for the way you went astray.
A foolish heart will cost
you sleep and often make you curse.
A selfish heart is trouble,
but a foolish heart is worse.
Bite the hand, bite the hand
that bakes your bread.
Dare to leap where the angles
fear to tread,
Till you are torn apart.
Stoke the fires of Paradise,
with coals from Hell to start,
But never give your love,
my friend,
Unto a foolish heart, unto
a foolish heart.
Unto a foolish heart, unto
a foolish heart.
Forever Young [Dylan]
May God bless and keep you
always, may your wishes all come true.
May you always do for others
and let others do for you.
May you build a ladder to
the stars and climb on every rung,
May you stay forever young.
Forever young, forever young,
may you stay forever young.
May you grow up to be righteous,
may you grow up to be true.
May you always know the
truth and see the lights surrounding you.
May you always be courageous,
stand upright and be strong.
May you stay forever young.
Forever young, forever young,
may you stay forever young.
May your hands always be
busy, may your feet always be swift.
May you have a strong foundation
when the winds of changes shift.
May your heart always be
joyful, may your songs always be sung.
May you stay forever young.
Forever young, forever young,
may you stay forever young.
France [Hart/Weir/Hunter]
Way down in the south of
France all the ladies love to dance
Kick their heels up in the
air snap their fingers for romance
While the gentlemen compare
blonde or black or auburn hair
Check the motion and the
style Oh, you know they take their while
Hey, to make the motion more
complete, yeah, to make it more a treat
Club D'Jour is where to
go come on down and see the show
When the rhythm's really
right you can burn it down tonight
When the singing's really
fine sweet as Spanish sherry wine
When the club can't contain
the beat it just rolls out in the street
Spills on down the avenue
bringing dancers to their feet.
When it's good as it can
be it gets better wait and see
Oh, these folks don't ever
sleep
Till they're passed out
in the street
Way down in the south of
France all the ladies love to dance
Clap their hands and walk
on air, yeah, the feeling's really there
Won't you take a little
taste raise it to your charming face?
When the rhythm's really
right you can burn it down tonight
When the singing's really
fine sweet as Spanish sherry wine
Go on take a chance, the
ladies do love to dance.
Franklin's Tower [Garcia/Kreutzmann/Hunter]
In another time's forgotten
space
Your eyes looked from your
mother's face
Wallflower seed on the sand
and stone
May the four winds blow
you safely home.
Roll away the dew
Roll away the dew
Roll away the dew
Roll away the dew
I'll tell you where the four
winds dwell
In Franklin's tower there
hangs a bell
It can ring, turn night
to day
It can ring like fire when
you lose your way.
Roll away the dew
Roll away the dew
Roll away the dew
Roll away the dew
God save the child that rings
that bell
It may have one good ring,
baby, you can't tell
One watch by night, one
watch by day
If you get confused listen
to the music play.
[jam]
Some come to laugh their
past away
Some come to make it just
one more day
Whichever way your pleasure
tends
If you plant ice you're
gonna harvest the wind.
Roll away the dew
Roll away the dew
Roll away the dew
Roll away the dew
In Franklin's tower the four
winds sleep
Like four lean hounds the
lighthouse keep
Wildflower seed on the sand
and wind
May the four winds blow
you home again.
Roll away the dew
Roll away the dew
Roll away the dew
You'd better roll away the
dew
Roll away the dew
Roll away the dew
Roll away the dew
You'd better roll away the
dew - roll away.
Friend of the Devil [Garcia/Dawson/Hunter]
I lit out from Reno, I was
trailed by twenty hounds.
Didn't get to sleep that
night 'till the morning came around.
[Chorus]
Set out runnin' but I take
my time,
A friend of the devil is
a friend of mine.
If I get home before daylight,
I just might get some sleep tonight.
Ran into the devil, babe,
he loaned me twenty bills
I spent the night in Utah
in a cave up in the hills.
[Chorus]
I ran down to the levee but
the devil caught me there.
He took my twenty dollar
bill and he vanished in the air.
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
Got two reasons why I cry
away each lonely night.
The first one's named Sweet
Anne Marie and she's my hearts delight.
Second one is prison, baby,
the sheriff's on my trail,
And if he catches up with
me I spend my life in jail.
Got a wife in Chino, babe,
and one in Cherokee.
The first one says she's
got my child, but it don't look like me.
[Chorus]
[Jam]
[Bridge]
Got a wife in Chino, babe,
and one in Cherokee.
The first one says she's
got my child, but it don't look like me.
[Chorus]
--------
[Robert Hunter's additional
verse:]
You can borrow
from the devil, you can borrow from a friend.
The devil give
you twenty, when your friend got only ten.
From the Heart of Me
[D.Godchaux]
Voices slide down off the
mountain, sunlight turning red
Falls on the earth and it
spreads
Even the families lower
their heads as they ride
Age old faces of the mountains
looming naturally
I wonder if they're looking
at me, their monumental eyes I can feel
In the glow of the twilight
the thought of home
Reminds me now I'm reaching
out to you
Anything I can do to be
safe and warm in your arms
All I have from the heart
of you
I'd meet you anywhere in
the country or anywhere on the sea
All over the world it could
be
I would follow you with
the heart of me
Love calls echo in the valley,
dream come true tonight
Remembering you hold me
tight in tomorrow morning's light
I will find you
When I awoke the stars were
out and shining, shining for you and me
All I ever wanna be is save
and warm in your arms
All I have, from the heart
of me.
