<p>Grateful Dead–Touch of Grey</p>

<p>

Must be getting early
Clocks are running late
Paint by Number morning sky
Looks so phony</p>

<p>Dawn is breaking everywhere
Light a candle, curse the glare
Draw the curtains, I don’t care
'Cause it’s all right</p>

<p>I will get by
I will get by
I will get by
I will survive</p>

<p>I see you’ve got your fist out
Say your piece and get out
Yes I got the gist of it
But it’s all right</p>

<p>Sorry that you feel that way
The only thing there is to say
Every silver lining’s got a
Touch of grey</p>

<p>I will get by
I will get by
I will get by
I will survive</p>

<p>It’s a lesson to me
The Ables and the Bakers and the C’s
The ABC’s we all must face
To try to keep a little grace</p>

<p>It’s a lesson to me
The Deltas and the East and the Freeze
The ABC’s we all think of
To try to win a little love</p>

<p>I know the rent is in arrears
The dog has not been fed in years
It’s even worse than it appears
But it’s all right</p>

<p>Cow is giving kerosene
Kid can’t read at seventeen
The words he knows are all obscene
But it’s all right</p>

<p>I will get by
I will get by
I will get by
I will survive</p>

<p>The shoe is on the hand it fits
There’s really nothing much to it
Whistle through your teeth and spit
'Cause it’s all right</p>

<p>Oh well, a touch of grey
Kind of suits you anyway
That was all I had to say
And it’s all right</p>

<p>I will get by
I will get by
I will get by
I will survive</p>

<p>We will get by
We will get by
We will get by
We will survive
