Lyrics by Robert Hunter/Music by Jerry Garcia. >From the album "Aoxomoxoa". Chords figured by Insane Carnation. catfood3@ix.netcom.com 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

^AHer mirr^Bmor was the ^Awind^Eow, she sat quite alone. ^EAll arou^F#nd her the garden then grew ^AScarlet^Bm and purple^A and c^Erimson and blue.

^EShe came and^D she went and at last went away ^AHer garden^Bm was sealed^A when th^Ee flowers decayed. ^EOn the wall^F# of the garden a legend did say: &^Aquot;No^Bm one may c^Aome here sin^Bmce no one may stay_____."
