last wall of the castle
after bathing at baxter's, 1967
music and lyrics: jorma kaukonen
in a major
lead guitar: solo in a major
in the verse, strum really the b and e really fast repeatedly.
B E
Gone swirling tears came she went today;
Down Fallen years go by,
No place in learning how to cry; I went astray;
A E
Understanding is a virtue, hard to come by
G
You can teach me how to love
D F# G
If you'll only try; So please!
A
Don't give up so soon.
B E
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;
A E
Understanding is a virtue, hard to come by
G
You can teach me how to love
D F# G
If you'll only try; So please!
A
Don't give up so soon.
B E
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;
A E
Understanding is a virtue, hard to come by
G
You can teach me how to love
D F# G
If you'll only try; So please!
A
Don't give up so soon.
