Yeah that's a good example. Till the Morning Comes is another one that kinda-sorta comes to mind, though this Dead song is more upbeat/quicker. Though to be honest it's similar to quite a few Dead songs. Sugar Magnolia and even Uncle John's Band are other possibilities.
Obviously I don't mean the songs sound completely alike, just saying they're pretty similar.
And come to think of it, to some extent I think the Dead's "country" era might have been at least a bit copy of the Byrds (though they're immediate inspiration was CSN). Hope I didn't give the impression the Byrds were copying the Dead, was just noting that song had a similar sound to the early-70's Dead.
