Let It Grow Chords

(ver. 1)
Grateful Dead
[Intro]
Am7     Ddim

[Verse]
Am                                                   Bdim7  Ddim7   Fdim7  Gdim7
Morning comes, she follows the path to the river shore
Am                                                   Bdim7
Lightly sung, her song is the latch on the morning’s door
Am           C
See the sun, sparkle in the reeds
Am           C                 Bm  D
Silver beads, pass to the sea

[Bridge]
D                                                           A7
She comes from a town where they call her the wood cutter’s daughter
A7                                                          D
She’s brown as the bank where she kneels down to gather her water
D                                                Bm
She bears it away with a love that the river has taught her
Am                        C               Em/F#
Let it flow, let it flow, wide and clear

[Verse]
Am                                                    Bdim7  Ddim7   Fdim7  Gdim7
Round and round, the cut of the plow in the furrowed fields
Am                                                   Bdim7
Season’s round, the bushels of corn and the barley meal
Am             C
Broken ground, open and beckoning
Am             C                     Bm  D
To the spring, black dirt live again

[Bridge]
D                                                  A7
The plowman is broad as the back of the land he is sowing
A7                                               D
As he dances the circular track of the plow ever knowing
D                                                             Bm
That the work of his days measures more than the planting and growing
Am           Am           C              Em/F#
Let it grow, let it grow, greatly yield

[Chorus]
Em/F#         B             G            Em/F#
What shall we say, shall we call it by a name
   C                 G      Bm7
As well to count the angels dancing on a pin
Em/F# B             G                 Em/F#
Water bright as the sky from which it came
        D                                  A
And the name is on the earth that takes it in
   C                   G                Em/F#
We will not speak, but stand inside the rain
    C      G      D       Em      Am          C     Em/F#
And listen to the thunder shout, "I am, I am, I am, I am"

[verse jam]


[Verse]
Am                                                      Bdim7  Ddim7   Fdim7  Gdim7
So it goes, we make what we made since the world began
Am                                           Bdim7
Nothing more, the love of the women, work of man
Am             C
Seasons round, creatures great and small
Am             C                       Bm  D
Up and down, as we rise and fall

D  Fm  E

Jam on Am7

Jam on Em7

[Chorus]
Em/F#         B             G            Em/F#
What shall we say, shall we call it by a name
   C                 G      Bm7
As well to count the angels dancing on a pin
Em/F# B             G                 Em/F#
Water bright as the sky from which it came
        D                                  A
And the name is on the earth that takes it in
   C                   G                Em/F#
We will not speak, but stand inside the rain
    C      G      D       Em      Am          C     Em/F#
And listen to the thunder shout, "I am, I am, I am, I am"
