Touch of Grey
Grateful Dead
Intro - (X2)
Must be getting early, clocks are running late,
First light of the morning sky, looks so phony.
Dawn is breaking everywhere, not a candle, cursed the glare,
Draw the curtains, I don t care, cause it s alright.
Chorus
I will get by,
I will get by,
I will bet by,
I will survive.
I see you got your fist out, say your piece and get out,
Yes I get the gist of it, but it s alright.
Sorry that you feel that way, the only thing there is to say,
Every silver lining s got a touch of grey.
Chorus
It s a lesson to me, the eagles and the beggars and the seas
The ABC s, we all must face, try to keep a little grace.
It s a lesson to me, the delta s and the east and the freaks,
The ABC s, we all think of, try to create a little love
No more rabbit s in out ears, the dog has not been fed in years,
It s even worse than it appears, but, it s alright.
Coward s given kerosene, he can t read at seventeen,
The words he knows are all obscene, but, it s alright.
Chorus
The shoe is on the hand it fits, there s really nothing much to it,
Whistle through your teeth and spit, cause, it s alright.
Oh well a touch of grey, kind of suits you anyway,
That s all I have to say, but, it s alright.
