Blaze On (Phish)
Written by Trey Anastasio/Tom Marshall

Ok so this is my first tab ever after years of taking tabs. Thought I would give back a little.
I pulled this from when Trey spoke/played at the New Yorker Festival in Oct 2015. Sounds like he
is in a different key than some of the other live versions Phish had played during the summer. I think I
got it pretty close. Enjoy!

Verse 1
C majorC
Climb that hill,Stay on your feet
G+G             C majorC
Scramble for your footing when it gets to steep
C majorC
You're on the highway now, With higher hopes
    G+G                C majorC
While all around are rolling eggs with living yokes
      FF           C majorC
You never get too sad, you never get too blue
  G+G                 C majorC
It must be all the chemtrails raining down on you
       FF              C majorC
The justice of the peace, can't help you anymore
G+G                   C majorC
and they just took the covers off the justice of war

Chorus
C majorC
you got your nice shades on
C majorC
and the worst days are gone
      G+G
so now the band plays on
        C majorC
you've got one life, blaze on (twice)

Verse 2
C majorC
the storm is passing through, lay down your sticks and stones
       G+G            C majorC
the struggles over now, we're all just flesh and bones
    C majorC
we were wrong before, it was wrong to trust
   G+G            C majorC
the shadows cast, we're only light and dust
       FF            C majorC
and then one day you'll find, to your intense delight
   G+G             C majorC
that 3 wrong turns, can really make a right
      FF            C majorC
so why not be like me, be proud of all your crimes
      G+G            C majorC
cause when i screw up once, i do it 2 more times

Chorus
C majorC
you got your nice shades on
C majorC
and the worst days are gone
      G+G
so now the band plays on
        C majorC
you've got one life, blaze on (twice)


Verse 3
       FF                    C majorC
and we'll be dancing in the fields, running through the moor
G+G            C majorC
trippin on the barbwire, buried near the shore
FF            C majorC
blazing like a comet, thats brighter than a full moon
    G+G
so you better get ready, cause a change is coming soon
    FF        C majorC
i met a liar, called the messiah
     G+G          C majorC
i got the frying pan, i wanted fire
      FF       C majorC
i saw a red dress, i met a daughter
     G+G
i got the quicksand, i prayed for water


Chorus
C majorC
you got your nice shades on
C majorC
and the worst days are gone
      G+G
so now the band plays on
        C majorC
you've got one life, blaze on (twice)
