Grateful Dead – The Music Never Stopped (Guitar)

           E                      G A  C D        E                     G A  C
There's mosquitoes on the river,         Fish are rising up like birds

D         E                        G     A           C          D         E
It's been hot for seven weeks now,   too hot to even speak now,   did you hear what I just heard?

       E                          G A  C D     E                         G A  C D
Say it might have been a fiddle,         Or it could have been the wind

          E                       G     A          C         D        E
But there seems to be a beat now, I can feel it my feet now,   listen here it comes again!

   There's a band out on the highway,            They're high steppin' into town

A7                        Adim7         Bdim/A                   A
   It's a rainbow full of sound,   It's fireworks, calliopes and clowns

            A6        Bdim/A  A  Adim7
Everybody's dancin'

  C'mon children,         C'mon children, Come on clap your hands

A                       C D   F G       A                    C D   F G
Sun went down in honey,         And the moon came up in wine

         A                          C        D               F     G     D    E        A      E   F# B
You know stars were spinnin' dizzy, Lord the band kept us so busy, we forgot about the time

          E                        G A  C D      E                      G A  C D
They're a band beyond description,        Like Jehovah's favorite choir

       E                     G         A                C     D             E
People joining hand in hand, while the music played the band, Lord, they're setting us on fire

      E                         G A  C D        E                    G A  C D
Crazy rooster crowin' midnight,        Balls of lightin' roll along

        E                        G     A                  C       D       E
Old men sing about their dreams, women laugh and children scream, and the band keeps playin' on

   No ones's noticed, but the band's all packed and gone,            was it ever there at all?

                 A6        Bdim/A  A  Adim7

Well the cool breeze came on Tuesday,        And the corn's a bumper crop

And the fields are full of dancin', full of singin' and romancin',   the music never stopped
