Ripple by Grateful Dead

G G C C
If my words did glow with the gold of sunshine
C C G G
and my tunes were played on the harp unstrung
G G C C
would you hear my voice come thru the music
G G D D C C G G
would you hold it near as it were your own


G G C C
It's a hand-me-down the thoughts are broken
C C G G
perhaps they're better left unsung
G G C C
I don't know don't really care
G G D D C C G G
let there be songs to fill the air


Am Am D D
Ripple in still water
G G C C
when there is no pebble tossed
A A D D
nor wind to blow

G G C C
Reach out your hand if your cup be empty
C C G G
if your cup is full may it be again
G G C C
let it be known there is a fountain
G G D D C C G G
that was not made by the hands of men


G G C C
There is a road no simple highway
C C G G
Between the dawn and the dark of night
G G C C
and if you go no one may follow
G G D D C C G G
that path is for your steps alone



Am Am D D
Ripple in still water
G G C C
when there is no pebble tossed
A A D D
nor wind to blow


G G C C
You who choose to lead must follow
C C G G
but if you fall you fall alone
G G C C
if you should stand then who's to guide you
G G D D C C G G
If I knew the way I would take you home
