Cassidy
The Grateful Dead
E Thing (x4)
E A add4
I have seen where the wolf has slept by the silver stream
E A
I can tell by the mark he left, you were in his dream
Em Am
Ah, child of countless trees
Em Am
Ah, child of boundless seas
F#m A add4
What you are, and what you're meant to be
F#m A
Speaks its name though you were born to me
E Thing (x2)
Born to me Cassidy
Lost now on the country miles in his Cadillac
I can tell by the way you smile, he is rolling back
Come, wash the night time clean
Come, grow the scorched ground green
Blow the horn and tap the tambourine
Close the gap of the dark years in between
You and me Cassidy...
A E
Quick beats in an icy heart
A E
A catch colt draws a coffin cart
A E
There he goes, and now here she starts
B add4
Hear her cry
F#m E B
Flight of the seabirds
F#m E B
Scattered like lost words
F#m E B E Thing (x4)
Wheel to the storm, and fly
*Solo* (verse & chorus) E Thing (x2)
Faring thee well now, let your life proceed by its own design
Nothin' to tell now, let the words be yours, I'm done with mine
Faring thee well now, let your life proceed by its own design
Nothin' to tell now, let the words be yours, I'm done with mine
*Space* (serious E jam)
Flight of the seabirds
Scattered like lost words
Wheel to the storm, and fly... E Thing (x4)

Ya can't tab out space. Space is that realm of improvisation and exploration that can't be documented - it's a free place. When I'm playing the song by myself, I'll do the E Thing twice and then do the harmony twice.
E Thing:
e |---0-0-0----------------
B |---------3-2-0-3-2-0----
G |---------------------2--
D |------------------------
A |------------------------

E Thing (alt or harmony):
