                               Sugar Magnolia

                                                         The Grateful Dead

   A add4  A E A (x2)  A E A
        A                         add4
         Sugar Magnolia, blossoms blooming
         A          G          E       A
         Head's all empty, and I don't care
                     C#m         F#m
         Saw my baby down by the river
        E                     D           A     A E A
         Knew she had to come up soon for air

         Sweet blossom come on under the willow
         We can have high times if you'll abide
         We can discover the wonders of nature
         Rollin' in the rushes down by the riverside

                  D              add4    D
                  She's got everything delightful
                                 A       D
                  She's got everything I need
                                       add4       D
                  Takes the wheel when I'm seeing double
                                 E      A     A E A
                  Pays my ticket when I speed
                                               (intro)

         Well, she comes screamin' through rays of violet
         She can wade in a drop of dew
         She don't come, and I don't follow
         Waits backstage while I sing to you

         Well, she can dance a cajun rhythm
         Jump like a Willis in four wheel drive
         She's a summer love in the spring, fall, or winter
         She can make happy any man alive

                           A        G    D A             G       D A
                           Sugar Magnolia - ringin' that bluebell
                                        G        D A
                           Caught up in sunlight
                                       E           G              D
                           Come on out singin' out walkin' in the sunshine
                                                                  A E A
                           Ooh, come on honey, come along with me

                  She' got everything delightful
                  She's got everything I need
                  A breeze in the pines in the summertime moonlight
                  Crazy in the sunlight, yes indeed

                          A                            add4
                           Sometimes when the cuckoo's cryin'
                                            add4
                           When the moon is halfway down
                         B                             add4
                           Sometimes when the night is dyin'
                                               F#      E   Bsus4  B add4
                           I take me out and I wander 'round~~~~
                          B         A     E  Bsus4  B
                           I wander round
                                             (pause)

                                  B                      add4
                                  Doo doo doo - sunshine daydream
                               B  F#             E
                                  Walkin' in the tall trees
                                  Goin' where the wind blows
                                  Bloomin' like a red rose

                                  Breathing more freely
                                  Light out singin'
                                  I'm walking in the morning sunshine
                                  Sunshine daydream, oooh~~

                                  Sunshine daydream
                                  Walkin' in the tall trees...

   There's a lot of sliding into chords in this song, much the same way
   that the A Thing begins.  In concert, the Dead jam out on the Sunshine
   Daydream quite a bit more.  Sometimes they'd do a Sugar Mag early on,
   and then pull out the Daydream at the end of the show.
