Rosemary Grateful Dead
Here are the chords to the Grateful Dead's song "Rosemary".
Lyrics by Robert Hunter/Music by Jerry Garcia.
Upon listening to this song the lyrics are fuzzy due to the wonderful
filter on the vocals, giving it that creepy haunting sound. i have found
no less than three different "official" words to the first line, some
funnier than others. "Swath of heaven..." to (what i hear) "Scents of
heather...", the one here is from Hunter's book _Box of Rain_. That, to
me, is the final word, aye?
i also found that the chords listed in a certain music book are
very close, but not exact. Perhaps neither are mine, but here they are.
As always, corrections are welcome...
E (7th fret) D (5th fret)
Her boots were of leather, a breath of cologne
[A]Her mirror was the [Bm]window, she [A]sat quite [E]alone.
[E]All around her the [F#]garden then grew
[A]Scarlet and [Bm]purple and [A]crimson and [E]blue.
[E]She came and she went and at [D]last went away
[A]Her garden was [Bm]sealed when the [A]flowers [E]decayed.
[E]On the wall of the garden a [F#]legend did say:
&[A]quot;No one[Bm] may come [A]here since no one[Bm] may stay_____."
