On The Beach

Lyrics: Neil Young
Music: Neil Young

Played by Phil Lesh & Friends in September 2017 at Terrapin Crossroad Backyard.

The world is turning
I hope it dont turn away
The world is turning
I hope it dont turn away

All my pictures are falling
From the wall
Where I placed them yesterday
The world is turning
I hope it don't turn away

I need a crowd of people
But I can't face them
Day to day
I need a crowd of people
But I can't face them
Day to day
Though my problems are meaningless
That dont make them
Go away
I need a crowd of people
But I can't face them
Day to day

I went to the radio interview
But I ended up alone
At the microphone
I went to the radio interview
But I ended up alone
At the microphone
Now I'm living out here on the beach
But those seagulls are still out of reach
I went to the radio interview
But I ended up alone
At the microphone

Get out of town
Think I'll get out of town
Get out of town
Think I'll get out of town
I head for the sticks
With my bus and friends
I follow the road
Though I dont know where it ends
Get out of town, get out of town
Think I'll get out of town
Because the world is turning
I dont wanna see it
Turn away
