Night Of A Thousand Stars Written By: Robert Hunter Performed by: Warren Haynes/Phil Lesh & Friends
BFull moon rising over Alcatraz F#mHangin' there like a Abig toEpaz BRuling this night of a thousand stars F#mWith a back seat full of Abroken Eguitars BRaised in chains by Jehosaphat's daughter F#mServed twenty years for walkin'A on the Ewater BJust out fishin' for love in the rain F#mFrom an easy chair in theA passing laEne F#mIf I had forgotten, I'd Aremember Ewell F#mThe fruit and the tree from Awhich it Efell F#mMany long years rollin' Ahomeward bEound F#mGoin' hell-for-leather on this Amerry go roEund
Chorus
ENight of a Bthousand Astars EThe sound of Bsweet gAuitars BOn this night (Aon this night) BOn this night (Aon this night) BOn this night (Aon this night) BOn this night of a thousand Estars
BDown in the laundry with my head in my hands F#mDoin' whatsoever the ALord cEommands BPoppin' the hood off a Ford V8 F#mDisguised with an out of staAte license Eplate BPayin' my taxes in whiskey and blood F#mMixed in a barrel floatinAg on the flEood BDoing my penance for a life of crime F#mSinging B Minor Masses inA double timEe F#mThe tiger and the lion hangAing on the Ewall F#mBetween the head of a saint anAd a bocce bEall F#mI've been rebuked and I'Ave been scoErned F#mBut I can't ever say that I haven'tA been warneEd

Jam on Chorus
BFlipping through the pages of my soul F#mMy heart rears up and swallowAs me Ewhole BThese were moments of my life F#mSince dissected with a thick Ablunt Eknife BIf I could recapture one moment of truth F#mFrom the firm foundation of a Amisspent Eyouth BI'd fall like rain on this thirsty earth F#mA testament of beauty Aand woErth F#mBut if it don't happen becauAse it cEan't F#mI hope and pray this wAish you graEnt F#mFrom one man's heart to a Afalling Estar F#mWe always remember wAho we aEre

BRemember the night of a thousand stars F#mWhen love swam naked in Athe resEervoir BWriting mad sonnets in the midnight park F#mLeaving tracks of tears for Aher wEatermark BDrums of the jungle on the edge of night F#mOnly you could see with your Aperfect sEight BIf you don't remember you can be excused F#m'Cause it could never Abe reEproduced
