Blow Away

Grateful Dead

 AbEb
 A man and a woman
 BbBbsus4BbBbsus4Bb
Come together as strangers.                         
 Ab
 When they part
 EbBbBbsus4BbBbsus4Bb
They're usually strangers still.                        
 AbEb
It's like a practical joke
 BbBbsus4BbBbsus4Bb
Played on us by our Maker.                        
 Ab
 Empty bottles,
 EbBbBbsus4BbBbsus4Bb
 That can't be filled.                        

 CmDm
 Baby, who's to say
 EbF
It coulda been different now that it's done.
 Cm
(Baby, who's to say....)
 Dm
Baby, who's to say
 EbF
That it shoulda been anyway.
 CmDm
 Baby, who's to say
 EbF
That it even matters in the long run.
 Cm
(Baby, who's to say.)
 Dm
Give it just a minute.
 EbF
And it'll blow away.

It'll blow away.

 GmEbF
You fancy me to be
The master of your feelings.
You barely bruise me
With your looks to kill.
Though I admit
We were sometimes brutal in our dealings,
I never held you against your will.

Chorus

Jam on verse chords

 GmEbF

Your case against me is so
Very clearly stated
I plead no contest,
I turn and shrug.
I've come to figure all importance
overestimated.
You must mean water when you beg for blood.
