Grateful Dead – China Cat Sunfloweri Know You Rider (Guitar)

G                                     F
Look for a while at the China Cat sunflower,

G                                     F
Proud walking jingle in the midnight sun.

G                                F
Copperdome bodhi drip a silver kimono,

G                                                 F          G
Like a crazy quilt stargown through a dream like wind.

G                                     F
Crazy cat peekin' through a lace bandanna,

G                                              F
Like a one-eyed Cheshire, like a diamond-eye jack.

G                                           F
A leaf of all colors plays a golden-string fiddle,

G                                 F
To a double-E waterfall over my back.

E   D                 
B x3

G                                     F
Comic book colors on a violin river Cryin' Leonardo,

G                                     F
Words from out a silk trombone.

G                                     F
I rang a silent bell, beneath a shower of pearls,

G                                     F
In the eagle-winged palace of the Queen Chinee.

D                        C       G       D
I know you rider, gonna miss me when I'm gone;

D                        C       G       D
I know you rider, gonna miss me when I'm gone;

      F          C          F       C   F    D
Gonna miss your baby, from rollin' in your arms.

D                              C       G       D
Lay down last night, Lord I could not take my rest;

D                              C       G       D
Lay down last night, Lord I could not take my rest;

    F        C                  F         C   F    D
My mind was wanderin' like the wild geese in the west.

D                        C       G       D
The sun will shine in my back door someday;

D                        C       G       D
The sun will shine in my back door someday;

      F          C     F       C   F    D
March winds will blow all my troubles away.

D                          C       G       D
I wish I was a headlight, on a North bound train;

D                          C       G       D
I wish I was a headlight, on a North bound train;

F            C     F            C       F    D
I'd shine my light through the cool Colorado rain.
