Dm F Bb F


Drink  of  streams  from  hidden  sources
Dm        F              Bb                 F
Blindly  ride  the  star  streaked  heavens
Dm          F              Bb          F              A
Breath in deep and risk your fortunes
A
Judge the darkness

Bb C F A And wonder what, why contain it Bb C F A Steals my mind and belies my hands Bb C F A Circles tolled / told rumination Bb C F Yes, we’ll stretch for stars and promised lands

This is pretty close….me thinks!
although i cant get the chords to line up over the correct lyric so you’ll have to listen for the chord changes.

during trevor’s las tortugas set, the last stanza goes:

So test your eyes by meteors
Speak with thoughts of mountain cores
Walk the edge of an ocean shore
I’m sure there’s more than this
Yeah I’m sure there’s more than this

i have heard some variations of this

so if you thirsty you can drink from me
my toes are tapped to endless springs like rooted trees WITH jealousies
for salty seas of which they DRINK. I think sometimes he says with which they DREAM as well, both make sense. I love analyzing this song. I am working on the middle part as well.

This is definately one of Trevor’s most profound songs and shows off both his inspired songwriting abilities and creativity on the keyboard.

Verses like:
So dust the sun-stroked silver highway
Carve the mountains with your shadow
Your rubber souls and your wooden heels
Are melted black and they’ve been fire-straddled

The version from the unreleased 1/12/04 solo Elbo Room performance is quite stunning.

So far, only played with the band twice by Coffee Bean Brown (acoustic TLG in 2002 and 2003), and once by Trevor solo during the TLG show at Haymaker 5-8-2004… Trevor has played Drink Of Streams a few times in his rare solo appearances, including a soaring version at Wakarusa 6-11-2006.
