Playin’ In The Band ©1971
Words by Robert Hunter / Music by Bob Weir & Mickey Hart
[D]Some
folks trust to reason
[G]Others
trust to [A]might.
[D]I
don’t trust to nothin’
But I [G]know
it comes out [A]right.
[D]Say it
once again now
Oh, I [G]hope
you under-[A]stand.
[D]When
it’s done and over,
A [G]man
is just a [A]man
[D]Playin’
-- playin’ in the [A]band
[D]Daybreak,
daybreak on the [A]land.
[D]Some
folks look for answers.
[G]Others
look for [A]fights.
[D]Some
folks up in treetops
Just [G]lookin’
for their [A]kites.
[D]I can
tell your fortune
[G]Look
what’s in your [A]hand.
But [D]I
can’t stop for nothin’
I’m just [G]playin’
in the [A]band.
[D]Playin’
-- playin’ in the [A]band
[D]Daybreak,
daybreak on the [A]land.
[D]Standin’
on a tower
[G]World
at my com-[A]mand.
[D]You
just keep a-turnin’
While I’m [G]playin’
in the [A]band
[D]If a
man among you
Got no [G]sin
upon his [A]hand,
[D]Let
him cast a stone at me
For [G]playin
in the [A]band,
[D]Playin’
-- playin’ in the [A]band
[D]Daybreak,
daybreak on the [A]land.
[D]Playin’
-- playin’ in the [A]band
[D]Daybreak,
daybreak on the [A]land.
