Come on, you DeadHeads - where are you???

| 1.  I have spent my life seeking all that's still unsung.
`Attics of my life' - Grateful Dead (American Beauty) Garcia/Hunter

| 2.  Ivory wheels on a rosewood track -
|     Click, clack, take you back...
`Ivory Wheels, Rosewood Track' - Robert Hunter (Jack O'Roses) Garcia/Hunter
a ringer, perhaps...if I had added the next two words "...to Terrapin", it
might have been easier to put together.

| 3.  Who can deny it's not just a change in style?
`New Speedway Boogie' - Grateful Dead (Workingman's Dead) Garcia/Hunter

| 4.  Tell me the cost; I can pay,
|     let me go, tell me love is not lost.
`Help on the Way' - Grateful Dead (Blues for Allah) Garcia/Hunter

| 5.  There comes a redeemer and he slowly too fades away.
`Eyes of the World' - Grateful Dead (Wake of the Flood) Garcia/Hunter

| 6.  Out on the mountain it'll drive you insane...
`Unbroken Chain' - Grateful Dead (from the Mars Hotel) Peterson/Lesh

| 7.  ...a peaceful place, or so it looks from space.
|     A closer look reveals the human race.
`Throwing Stones' - Grateful Dead (not on an album yet) ?Weir/Barlow?
(...and don't call it "Ashes to Ashes" unless you like to see DeadHeads
jump up and down and make rude noises)

| 8.  Run around the corner,
|     Lord, run smack into a tree...
`Bertha' - Grateful Dead (untitled double "Skull&Roses" album, aka
Skullfuck) Garcia/Hunter

| 9.  ...I'll pay this one off to you in lead.
`Dupree's Diamond Blues' - Grateful Dead (AoxomoxoA) Hunter/Garcia/Lesh

| 10. ...and now the die has shaken, now the die must fall.
`Jack Straw' - Grateful Dead (Europe '72) Weir/Hunter

The common thread (some surprise!) is that all except #2 have been performed
by the Grateful Dead; #2 is part of a section of Terrapin that I've never
heard the Dead do, though it's part of the Terrapin on Jack O'Roses.

OK, so I'm a DeadHead...so what else is new?
