  CELLO SONG- Nick Drake

  

  TUNING: D A D G D F# (capo 1st fret) or C G C G C E (capo 3rd fret)

  

            Ano3

  Strange face, with your eyes

  D              Ano3

  So pale and sincere

       

  Underneath you know so well

  D                 Ano3

  You have nothing to fear

   D                   Ano3       D         Ano3

  For the dreams that came to you when so young

   D          Ano3

  Told of a life

  Bm/D               Ano3

   Where spring is sprung

  Ano3

  Mmmmm

  

  You would seem so frail

  In the cold of the night

  When the armies of emotion

  Go out to fight

  But while the earth sinks to its grave

  You sail to the sky

  On the crest of a wave

  

  

  So forget this cruel world

  Where I belong

  I'll just sit and wait

  And sing my song

  And if one day you should see me in the crowd

  Lend a hand and lift me

  To your place in the cloud

  Mmmmmm

  Mmmmmm

  Mmmmmm

  NOTE:  This is extremely rough.  I haven't even attempted to transcribe 

  the picking pattern, much less the complicated intro (cos I don't know 

  how to play it!).  Any attempts with these would be greatly appreciated.
