star track

crown of creation, 1968

lyrics: jorma kaukonen

music: traditional

in e minor

lead guitar: solo in e minor



          Em                     A                     Em

If your head spins round try to see the ground if you can

                          D                         G  Am B7      

My busy eyes missed her path through the air as she ran

      Em

My sensory mind is too old to cry

      A                      C

Not ready to live and too strange to die

    Em         G              A      B7

So stop your doubt push the world on by

           Em

With your hand


          Em                     A       

It takes time to love and open minds to love

           Em          

And who's got time on their hands

                                   D

Well life can be hard when you're holes in a card

           G         A      B7

In some electronic hand

          Em           

You'll wander around from place to place

   A           C

Disappear without a trace

       Em     G         A         B7

And someone else will take your place

     Em

In line


         Em                          A             

You can fool your friends about the way it ends

            Em

But you can't fool yourself

                                      D

Take your head in hand and make your own demands

               G               A       B7

Or you'll crystallize on the shelf

      Em                    

The freeway's concrete way won't show

      A              C

You where to run or how to go

      Em      G         A        B7          Em

And running fast you'll go down slow in the end


   Em     G         A         B7         Em

Running fast you'll go down slow in the end.
