The thrill is gone
The thrill is gone away
The thrill is gone
The thrill is gone away
You know you done me wrong
And you'll be sorry someday

The thrill is gone
The thrill is gone away from me
The thrill is gone
The thrill is gone away from me
Though I'll still live on
But so lonely I'll be

The thrill is gone
The thrill is gone away for good
The thrill is gone
The thrill is gone away for good
Someday I'll be over it all
Like I know a good man should

I'm free baby
Free from your spell
I'm free, free baby
Free from your spell
Now that it's all over
All I can do is wish you well

Now it's all over
All I can do is wish you well

4. Very cool stuff :)
Edited on Mon Mar-14-05 08:06 AM by ET Awful
All acoustic (or semi-acoustic to be more accurate) and kind of a jazz feel to it, yet still reminiscent of King's version.

It's one of the few songs that Jerry actually appeared in a video for, and the video suits the mood of the song perfectly. It's just a couple of guys playing music in a smoke-filled bar for the most part. . . has a very cool groove to it.

I recommend finding a copy and listening if you ever get a chance :).

6. Grateful Dawg
that movie-in-a-movie scene where they did "The Thrill is Gone" was just great ... i liked the way the scene opened with Garcia coming by to fetch Grisman who was sleeping under some newspapers on the sidewalk ... the whole thing had a great feel and the music was as good as it gets ...
