CRYPTICAL ENVELOPMENT
Lyrics By: Jerry Garcia
Music By: Jerry Garcia
E A (no 3rd)
The other day they waited
A E
The sky was dark and faded (note 1)
no chord
Solemnly they stated
A
He has to die
G A
You know he has to die
E A (no 3rd)
And all the children learnin'
A E
From books that they were burnin'
no chord
Every leaf was turning
A
To watch him die
G A
You know he has to die
Em G D
The summer sun looked down on him
C (no 3rd) B (no 3rd) Am Am/G
His mother could but frown on him
Dm/F D/F# Em/G G#dim
And all the others sound on him
Am F#7/A# B7
But it doesn't seem to matter
And when the day had ended
With rainbow colours blended
no chord
His mind remained unbended
A
He had to die
G A
You know he had to die
You know he had to die
(1) It sounds as if in the very earliest performances (such as 22 October 1967), Jerry sings "Their breath was cold and bated" (thanks to Wil Gehne for pointing this out).
