4. This was played by a friend on his acoustic guitar at another friends very sad funeral.

The friend died tragically in a head on collision on his motorcycle with a truck on a rainy night after a bad evening with his "woman", who was my good friend. This happened at a pivotal time in our lives as a group of friends. It kind of changed everything.
So every time I hear it, I'm right back there. We identified as hippies and i went to his funeral in bare feet in my hippie dress. That dress still hangs in my closet upstairs with my grandpa's shirt that has a cigar in the pocket. It's been 50 years, or more.
