Here are the chords to the Grateful Dead's song "Rosemary".

Lyrics by Robert Hunter/Music by Jerry Garcia.

From the album "Aoxomoxoa".

Chords figured by Insane Carnation.  catfood3@ix.netcom.com



Upon listening to this song the lyrics are fuzzy due to the wonderful 

filter on the vocals, giving it that creepy haunting sound.  i have found 

no less than three different "official" words to the first line, some 

funnier than others.  "Swath of heaven..." to (what i hear) "Scents of 

heather...", the one here is from Hunter's book _Box of Rain_.  That, to 

me, is the final word, aye?

	i also found that the chords listed in a certain music book are 

very close, but not exact.  Perhaps neither are mine, but here they are.

As always, corrections are welcome...



E (7th fret)		   D (5th fret)

Her boots were of leather, a breath of cologne

A		   Bm	       A	 E	

Her mirror was the window, she sat quite alone.

E		   F#	

All around her the garden then grew

A	    Bm	       A	   E

Scarlet and purple and crimson and blue.



E			     D	

She came and she went and at last went away

A	       Bm	       A       E		 	

Her garden was sealed when the flowers decayed.

E			    F#	

On the wall of the garden a legend did say:

 A	    Bm	      A		       Bm

"No one may come here since no one may stay_____."
