In my heart I have a feeling, and I don't know what I'm gonna do; Oh, what a beautiful world, the world, what should I do? What should I do? Don't you know what I have found? Maybe you've found it too; Today is made up of yesterday and tomorrow, Young girl Sunday blues and all her sorrow. One side of me is filled with brightness, no matter what I might say; The days are made with waterfall colors, couldn't I make you stay? If rain slides down the sides of my face must be a rainy day; But I get lost in yesterday and tomorrow, tomorrow, Young girl Sunday blues and all her sorrow. I walk beside you laughing and I'm high, don't try to touch me with words; When I tell you I dream it might seem like silence, but so much can be heard; I think of things, what loving you brings, maybe my thing is her; Today is made of yesterday and tomorrow Young girl Sunday blues, and all her sorrow; Ah! come into my mind, let yourself wander free and easy; Ah! come into my life, Sunday blues girl, young and new girl, You're the only true girl here can please me I said, "Please me, yeah! Please me! Please me! Please me!" |

Martha she listens for the ticking of my footsteps, patiently
She sifts the hairy air that's worn and wood-swept, pleasantly She does as she pleases, she listens for me Martha she calls to me from a feather in the meadow, "Fly to me" You can dance and sing and walk with me And dreams will fade and shadows grow in weed She does as she pleases, she waits there for me She does as she pleases, her heels rise for me My love she talks to winking windows as she murmurs to her feet, thoughtly She separates in laughter to my side, caught for me She does as she pleases, she waits there for me She does as she pleases, her heels rise for me Martha she keeps her heart in a broken clock and it's waiting there for me She weeds apart through a token lock; What a great thing to be free She weeps time, starts unspoken, but when the gate swings there she'll be, There she'll be: in green sun, on blue earth under warm running shower. |

I'm here for you any old time stay here, play here. Make a place for yourself here. I want to be with you, no matter what I do, what doesn't change is the way I feel for you today. Times just seem so good. I do know that I should be here with you this way, and it's new, so new. I see changes, changes all around me are changes. |

THE LAST WALL OF THE CASTLE
(Jorma Kaukonen) Gone swirling tears came she went today; Down Fallen years go by, No place in learning how to cry; I went astray; Understanding is a virtue, hard to come by You can teach me how to love If you'll only try; So please! Don't give up so soon. Sorry that I hurt her I went astray; Hurt her mind and broke her heart But there's no stopping once you start; she went away; Understanding is a virtue, hard to come by You can teach me how to love If you'll only try; So please! Don't give up so soon. I never knew you the way you are; The Blinded bird is not sincere, His flying's done from only fear, he's lost his star; Understanding is a virtue, hard to come by You can teach me how to love If you'll only try; So please! Don't give up so soon. (Solo) Fade on instrumental after 3rd Verse |

White shirt and tie, white shirt and tie, white shirt and tie, wedding ring, wedding ring. Mulligan stew for Bloom, the only Jew in the room Saxon's sick on the holy dregs and they're constant getting throw up on his leg. Molly's gone to blazes, Boylan's crotch amazes any woman whose husband sleeps with his head all buried down at the foot of his bed. I've got his arm I've got his arm I've had it for weeks I've got his arm Steven won't give his arm to no gold star mother's farm; War's good business so give your son and I'd rather have my country die for me.

WATCH HER RIDE
(Paul Kantner) I didn't know you were the one for me, I couldn't see But you were waiting, For someone to come along to help you out to sing your song, And I was changing; All I see is you; All I feel is you for me! And I would really like to watch you ride; And always feel you by my side; I would really like to watch you ride All on me! I go stumbling to the sky, and I seem to fly so high I see you, I feel you; You have a way of walking 'round your feet they never touch the ground, And you are shining; All I see is you; All I feel is you for me! Times don't change; Times don't ever change for me; And I know that you could be the only thing in my world, The only thing that my mind would find; For love, for love and peace of mind, for me, for me; Oh Your Shadow in the morning sun becomes my fun, and we can say, "I love you, love you" My morning shines on silver beaches, your light flashes to the reaches Of my mind, my mind, of My mind, and my mind it comes alive with you; It's all that I can do to sit here and let you blow my mind; Ah! My mind, You're so fine, in my mind you're so fine, in my mind you're so fine, You're so fine, in my mind, you're so fine in mind. |

You want two heads on you body
And you've got two mirrors in your hand. Priests are made of brick with gold crosses on a stick and your nose is too small for this land. Inside your head is your town inside your room your jail inside your mouth the elephants trunk and booze, the only key to your bail Coda: Want two heads on your body and you've got two mirrors in your hand Two heads can be put together. And you can fill both your feet with sand. Noone will know you've gutted your mind but what will you do with your bloody hands? Your lions are fighting with chairs, your arms are incredibly fat; Your women are tired of dying alive if you've had any women at that. Wearing your comb like an axe in your head List'ning for signs of life; Children are sucking on stone and lead And chasing their hoops with a knife; New breasts and jewels for the girl, Keep them polished and shining; Put a lock on her belly at night, sweet life, For no child of mine.

Won't you try? (repeat 3 times) Find a way to need someone, Find a way to see, Find a way to need someone, And the sunshine'll set you free; Won't you try? With love before we're gone; Won't you try? Won't you try? Saturday afternoon, When your head is feeling fine, You can ride inside our car; Saturday afternoon, Saturday afternoon. I will give you caps of blue, and silver sunlight for your hair; All that soon will be, is what you mean to see, my love; Won't you try? Won't you try? I do care that you do see! It's the time to leave my lady; Yes it is, I know; Round about and everywhere, Sunshine instead of snow! Times can change, It's what I say is true; All is true, I'll come through for you, I'll come through for you, my love; Won't you try? Won't you try? Won't you try? Saturday afternoon, Yellow clouds rising in the noon, acid, incense and balloons; Saturday afternoon, people dancing everywhere, Loudly shouting "I don't care!" It's a time for growing, and a time for knowing love; Saturday afternnoon, Saturday afternoon; (Repeat to fade) |

And held its breath too long The winter looked the same As if it never had gone And through an open window Where no curtain hung I saw you, I saw you Comin' back to me One begins to read between The pages of a look The shape of sleepy music And suddenly you're hooked Through the rain upon the trees The kisses on the run I saw you, I saw you Comin' back to me You came to stay and live my way Scatter my love like leaves in the wind You always say you won't go away But I know what it always has been It always has been A transparent dream Beneath an occasional sigh Most of the time I just let it go by Now I wish it hadn't begun I saw you, yes, I saw you Comin' back to me Strolling the hills Overlooking the shore I realize I've been here before The shadow in the mist Could have been anyone I saw you, I saw you Comin' back to me Small things like reasons Are put in a jar Whatever happened to wishes Wished on a star? Was it just something That I made up for fun? I saw you, I saw you Comin' back to me |

Wooden ships on the water, very free and easy, Easy, you know the way it's supposed to be, Silver people on the shoreline, let us be, Talkin' 'bout very free and easy...

Snow cuts loose from the frozen Until it joins with the African sea In moving it changes its cold and its name The reason I come and go is the same Animal game for me You call it rain But the human name Doesn't mean shit to a tree If you don't mind heat in your river and Fork tongue talking from me Swim like an eel fantastic snake Take my love when it's free Electric feel with me You call it loud But the human crowd Doesn't mean shit to a tree Change the strings and notes slide Change the bridge and string shift down Shift the notes and bride sings Fire eating people Rising toys of the sun Energy dies without body warm Icicles ruin your gun Water my roots the natural thing Natural spring to the sea Sulphur springs make my body float Like a ship made of logs from a tree Redwoods talk to me Say it plainly The human name Doesn't mean shit to a tree Snow called water going violent Damn the end of the stream Too much cold in one place breaks That's why you might know what I mean Consider how small you are Compared to your scream The human dream Doesn't mean shit to a tree |

Won't you try? (repeat 3 times) Find a way to need someone, Find a way to see, Find a way to need someone, And the sunshine'll set you free; Won't you try? With love before we're gone; Won't you try? Won't you try? Saturday afternoon, When your head is feeling fine, You can ride inside our car; Saturday afternoon, Saturday afternoon. I will give you caps of blue, and silver sunlight for your hair; All that soon will be, is what you mean to see, my love; Won't you try? Won't you try? I do care that you do see! It's the time to leave my lady; Yes it is, I know; Round about and everywhere, Sunshine instead of snow! Times can change, It's what I say is true; All is true, I'll come through for you, I'll come through for you, my love; Won't you try? Won't you try? Won't you try? Saturday afternoon, Yellow clouds rising in the noon, acid, incense and balloons; Saturday afternoon, people dancing everywhere, Loudly shouting "I don't care!" It's a time for growing, and a time for knowing love; Saturday afternnoon, Saturday afternoon; (Repeat to fade) |

You are the crown of creation, And you've got no place to go. Soon you'll attain the stability you strive for, In the only way that it's granted: In a place among the fossils of our time. In loyalty to their kind They cannot tolerate our minds. In loyalty to our kind We cannot tolerate their obstruction! Life is change. How it differs from the rocks.

If you go down round the bend in the river You’re gonna find a few changes Been going down there ‘Cause the people who live Round the bend in the river Have forgotten their dreams And they’ve cut off their hair chorus: And take a last, flying look At the last lonely eagle He’s soaring the length of the land Shed a tear for the fate Of the last lonely eagle For you know that he never will land If you go down where the lights Push the nighttime Back far enough so you can’t feel the fear Remember the boy who you left on the mountain Who’s sitting alone with the stars and his tears chorus: If you go down to the gas-powered flatland Where most of the people just think That they’re free Remember the peace that you had On the mountain Come back to the love that you had here with me chorus tag: For you know that he never will land |

He just grinned and shook my hand, 'No' was all he said. Take a load off, Fanny, take a load for free Take a load off, Fanny and you put the load right on me. I picked up my bag, I went looking for a place to hide When I saw Carmen and the Devil walking side by side I said 'Hey Carmen, come on, let's go downtown' She said 'I gotta go but my friend can stick around'. Take a load off, Fanny, take a load for free Take a load off, Fanny and you put the load right on me. Go down Miss Moses, there's nothing you can say It's just old Luke and Luke's waiting on the judgement day 'Well, Luke my friend, what about young Anna-Lee ?' He said 'Do me a favour son, won't you stay and keep Anna-Lee company ?'. Take a load off, Fanny, take a load for free Take a load off, Fanny and you put the load right on me. Crazy Chester followed me and he caught me in the fog He said 'I will fix your rat if you'll take Jack my dog' I said 'Wait a minute Chester, you know I'm a peaceful man' He said 'That's OK boy, won't you feed him when you can ?'. Yeah, take a load off, Fanny, take a load for free Take a load off, Fanny and you put the load right on me. Catch a cannonball now to take me down the line My bag is sinking low and I do believe it's time To get back to Miss Fanny, you know she's the only one Who sent me here with her regards for everyone.

I really got a pumper on the line this time It’s mine, mine, mine I ran to the king of creation I told him: save a bit for me The way things look I could have written the book You know I can hardly read Sally does your dog bite? no, no, no Keep him on a choke chain, reel him out slow Got a little place, call it my own It never really was a home Went to the college of evil, The smoke nearly drove me away I'd go crazy if I wasn’t so lazy, What more can I say? The white-face lydian judge Won’t you give a little one-two-three Him down on the corner Singing "little jack horner" But you gotta let the gravy be A whole loaf is better than a kick in the head If you tell me what you mean I'll tell you what I said I sent you for jelly, you come back with jam Who exactly do you think I am? |

And find out what's inside you Time goes on and I don't know just who you are Or how I'm going to find you You can do whatever you please The world's waiting to be seized You can collect all neglect Or all the self-respect you need, what you need And I know... and I know... and I know Your mind's guaranteed It's all you'll ever need So what do you want with me? We live but once But good things can be found around In spite of all the sorrow If you see black You can't look back You can't look front You cannot face tomorrow Some have it nice Fat and round, flash, paradise They're very wise to their disguise Trying to revolutionize tomorrow And I know... and I know... and I know Your mind's guaranteed It's all you'll ever need |

Today, I feel like pleasing you
More than before Today, I know what I want to do But I don't know what for To be living for you Is all I want to do To be loving you It'll all be there When my dreams come true Today, you'll make me say That I somehow have changed Today, you'll look into my eyes I'm just not the same To be any more than all I am Would be a lie I'm so full of love I could burst apart And start to cry Today, everything you want I swear it will all come true Today, I realize how much I'm in love with you With you standing here I could tell the world What it means to love To go on from here I can't use words They don't say enough Please, please listen to me It's taken so long to come true It's all for you, all for you |

The summer had inhaled
And held its breath too long The winter looked the same As if it never had gone And through an open window Where no curtain hung I saw you, I saw you Comin' back to me One begins to read between The pages of a look The shape of sleepy music And suddenly you're hooked Through the rain upon the trees The kisses on the run I saw you, I saw you Comin' back to me You came to stay and live my way Scatter my love like leaves in the wind You always say you won't go away But I know what it always has been It always has been A transparent dream Beneath an occasional sigh Most of the time I just let it go by Now I wish it hadn't begun I saw you, yes, I saw you Comin' back to me Strolling the hills Overlooking the shore I realize I've been here before The shadow in the mist Could have been anyone I saw you, I saw you Comin' back to me Small things like reasons Are put in a jar Whatever happened to wishes Wished on a star? Was it just something That I made up for fun? I saw you, I saw you Comin' back to me |

Do away with people blowing my mind
Do away with people wasting my precious time Take me to a simple place Where I can easily see my face Baby, baby I can see that you're fine Know I love you baby, yes I do Know I love you baby, yes I do Do away with people laughing at my hair Do away with people climbing on my precious prayers Take me to a circus tent Where I can easily pay my rent And all the other freaks can share my cares Know I love you baby, yes I do Know I love you baby, yes I do Do away with things that come on obscene Like hot rods real clean real fine nicotine Sometimes the price is 65 dollars Prices like that make a grown man holler 'Specially when it's sold by a kid that's only 15 Know I love you baby, yes I do Know I love you baby, yes I do |

Look into her eyes
Do you see what I mean Just look at her hair And when she speaks, oh what a pleasant surprise How do you feel Just look at her smile Do you see what I mean She is looking our way Oh how I wish we could stay, just stay for a while How do you feel When I meet a girl like that I don't know what to say But to meet a girl like that Brightens up my day My day, oh How do you feel Just look at her walk Do you see what I mean She is coming our way Oh, how my heart beats, I don't even think I can talk How do you feel When I meet a girl like that I don't know what to say But to meet a girl like that Brightens up my day My day, oh How do you feel How do you feel Do you know how you feel Just look at her smile (Tell me how do you feel) Look into her eyes (Tell me how do you feel) She is coming our way (Tell me how do you feel) Look into her eye (Tell me how do you feel) She is coming our way (Tell me how do you feel) |
