Berikut ini lirik dan chord lagu “New Speedway Boogie” dari Grateful Dead:

E
Please don't dominate the rap Jack, if you got nothin' new to say.
     E
And if you please, don't back up the tracks, this train's got to run today.

     E                                      E7
I spent a little time on the mountain, spent a little time on the hill.
E                                                G                     D                 A
Like some say, better run away; others say you better stand still.

       E                                                G           D                A
Now I don't know but I been told it's hard to run with the weight of gold.
              E                                                G           D                A
On the other hand, I've heard it said, it's just as hard with the weight of lead.

E
Who can deny, who can deny, it's not just a change of style.
E
One step done and another begun, and I wonder how many miles.

    E                                        E7
I spent a little time on the mountain, spent a little time on the hill,
E                                                                      G           D         A
Things went down we don't understand, but I think in time we will.

          E                                                   G                D               A
Now, I don't know, but I was told in the heat of the sun a man died of cold.
E                                                                G         D                    A
Keep on comin' or stand and wait with the sun so dark and the hour so late.

E
You can't overlook the lack, Jack, of any other highway to ride,
        E
It's got no signs or dividing lines, and very few rules to guide.

   E                                     E7
I spent a little time on the mountain, spent a little time on the hill,
E                                                    G                D          A
I saw things getting out of hand, I guess they always will.

        E                                                       G                D                  A
Now I don't know but I've been told if the horse don't pull you got to carry the load.
E                                                           G               D    A
I don't know whose back's that strong; maybe find out before too long.

E                                                                                                          G
One way or another, one way or another, one way or another, this darkness
        D        E
has got to give.
E                                                                                                        G
One way or another, one way or another, one way or another, this darkness
        D            E
has got to give.
E                                                                                                        G
One way or another, one way or another, one way or another, this darkness
       D         E
has got to give.
