Grateful dead - Touch of Grey

[Shawn]

How do you pick lyrics from a band that played it different every time? I'll call these definitive.

---

Must be getting early, clocks are running late.

Paint my love the morning sky, looks so phoney.

Dawn is breaking everywhere, light a candle, curse the glare

Draw the curtains I dont care, cause it's all right

I will get by, I will get by, I will get by, I will survive.

I see youve got your list out, say your piece and get out.

Guess I get the gist of it, but its all right

Sorry that you feel that way

The only thing there is to say

Every silver linings got a touch of grey

I will get by, I will get by, I will get by, I will survive.

Its a lesson to me, The eagles and the beggars and the seas,

The abcs we all must face, trying to keep a little grace.

Its a lesson to me, the deltas and the east and the freeze

The abcs we all think of, trying to win a little love.

I know the rent is in arrears, the dog has not been fed in years

Its even worse than it appears, but its all right

Cow is giving kerosene, kid cant read at seventeen

The words he knows are all obscene, but, its all right

I will get by, I will get by, I will get by, I will survive.

Shoe is on the hand it fits, there's really nothing much to it

Whistle through your teeth and spit, cause its all right

Oh well a touch of grey, kinda suits you anyway,

Thats was all I had to say, and its all right

I will get by, I will get by, I will get by, I will survive.

We will get by

We will get by

We will get by

We will survive.

We will get by

We will get by

We will get...
