Lyrics by Robert Hunter/Music by Jerry Garcia. >From the album "Aoxomoxoa". Chords figured by Insane Carnation. [email protected] 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 Bm A E Her mirror was the window, she sat quite alone. E F# All around her the garden then grew A Bm A E Scarlet and purple and crimson and blue. E D She came and she went and at last went away A Bm A E Her garden was sealed when the flowers decayed. E F# On the wall of the garden a legend did say: A Bm A Bm "No one may come here since no one may stay_____."
