Chabadas

Lyrics: Robert Hunter
Music: Mickey Hart, Ben Yonas, Crystal Monee Hall, Dave Schools, Andre Pessis, Zakir Hussain

A new song introduced by the Mickey Hart Band in 2013.

Never where it could go
Never where you've been
Learning what you need to know
Inside the tiger's den

Ten will get you twenty
If you dare to let it ride
A game of all or nothing
Come out on the other side

For richer or for poorer
Use your common sense
There is no coincidence
There are no accidents

Chabadas
Chingo chango
Now the chingo chango
Chabadas
Chingo chango
Now the chingo chango

Here is where the heart lives
Rooted to the spot
This is all the heart gives
For free like as not

Here is where the heart pours
Love that never fails
Although on hopeless concrete floors
And dream-infested jails

Listen real closely
Or turn your head away
It makes no sense tomorrow
What it means it means today

Chabadas
Chingo chango
Now the chingo chango
Chabadas
Chingo chango
Now the chingo chango

Love you more than promises
Deflected or decreed
More than satisfaction
In its greed of naked need

Love you more than stardust
In streaks of virgin sky
Across the windows of the moon
A childhood lullaby

God will not forget you
Though Hell will have her fling
Across the shadows of the sky
A bright and endless ring

Chabadas
Chingo chango
Now the chingo chango
Chabadas
Chingo chango
Now the chingo chango

Ring across the sky
Tell the reason why
Ring across the sky
Tell the reason why
Ring across the sky
Tell the reason why
Ring across the sky
Tell the reason why
[etc]
