I'll Take A Melody Lyrics - Grateful Dead

I've seen the rain pouring down 

The sky was gray with a speck of blue 

Peek through a hole in the clouds 

The sun was screaming, "Hey, you!" 

As you ramble through your sorrow 

Seem like everything come out wrong 

I'm living in yesterdays tomorrows 

I know something's helping me along 

I'll take a melody 

And see what I can do about it 

I'll take a simple C to G 

And feel brand new about it 

I understand why the old fishermen 

Sail along, sail along, sail along 

Sail along, sail along 

Someday he'll be gone 

I hear you talking about your troubles 

Everybody's got their troubles too 

You can make them burst like bubbles 

If you know just what to do 

You know I've been called a dreamer 

Dreams that never come true 

But I've been called so many things before 

Tell you what I'm gonna do 

I'll take a melody 

And see what I can do about it 

I'll take a simple C to G 

And feel brand new about it 

I understand why the old fishermen 

Sail along, sail along, sail along 

Sail along, sail along 

Someday he'll be gone 

I'll take a melody 

And see what I can do about it 

I'll take a simple C to G 

And feel brand new about it 

Shine on, keep on shining 

Shine on, keep on shining 

Shine on, keep on shining 

...
