[D] [A]
[E] [A] I'd rather be in some dark heart Where the sun [D] don't [A] ever shine
Than to be in some [D] big city In a small room [E] with a girl on my [A] mind
So blow [E] your whistle [A] freight train Take me far [D] along [A] down the track
I'm going away, [D] I'm leaving today Well I'm [A] going but I ain't coming back
[D] [A]
[D] [A]
I'd rather be [E] in some dark [A] heart Where the sun don't ever shine
Than to see another [D] man's dog And [A] to know [E] you'll [A] never be mine
So blow your whistle freight train Take me far [D] along down the [A] track
I'm going away, [D] I'm leaving today [A] Well I'm going but I ain't coming back

[D] [A]
[E] [A] I'd rather be [E] in some [A] dark heart Where the sun don't ever shine
Than to be home alone [D] Knowing that you're gone
[A] Would cause me to lose my mind So blow your whistle freight train
Take me [D] far along down the [A] track I'm going away, [D] I'm leaving today
Well I'm going [E] but I ain't [A] coming back I'm going away, [D] I'm leaving today
Well I'm going [E] but I ain't coming back

To learn Grateful Dead - (Live) Dark Hollow chords, begin by getting comfortable with these sequence: E, A, E, A, D and A. I suggest starting at a calm pace of 45 BPM, and as you gain confidence, approach the song's BPM of 91. Configure the capo to your vocal range and chord preference, remembering the key of A Major.
