Simple Twist Of Fate (Live at Madison Square Garden, NYC, November 15, 1991) Jerry Garcia Band

[Verse 1]
They sat together in the park
As the evening sky grew dark
She looked at him and he felt a spark tingle to his bones
'Twas then he felt alone and wished that he'd gone straight
And watched out for a simple twist of fate

[Verse 2]
They walked along by the old canal
A little confused, I remember well
Checked into a cheap hotel with a neon burnin' bright
He felt the heat of thе night hit him like a freight train
Moving to the simplе twist of fate

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
He woke up, the room was bare
He didn't see her anywhere
He told himself that he didn't care, threw the window open wide
He felt the emptiness inside to which he just could not relate
Brought on by a simple twist of fate

[Verse 4]
Saxophone somewhere far off played
As she walked along the arcade
The sun burst through a beat-up shade back where he was waking up
She dropped a coin into the cup of a blind man at the gate
And forgot about that simple twist of fate
