Jerry Garcia Band
I Shall Be Released (Live at French’s Camp, Piercy, CA, August 29, 1987)
[Verse 1]
They say every man can be replaced
They say every distance is not near
But I remember every face
Of every man who put me here

[Chorus]
I've seen my light come shining
From the west out to the east
Any day now, any day now
I shall be released

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 2]
They say every man needs a living
They say that every man must fall
Yet I swear I see my reflection
Somеwhere so high above thеse walls

[Chorus]
I've seen my light come shining
From the west out to the east
Any day now, any day now
I shall be released
[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
I understand a man in this lonely crowd
A man who swears he's not to blame
All day long you'll hear him crying out so loud
Shouting out that he was framed

[Chorus]
I've seen my light come shining
From the west out to the east
Any day now, any day now
I shall be released
I've seen my light come shining
From the west out to the east
Any day now, any day now
I shall be released

[Outro]
Any day now, any day now
I shall be released
