  NO PLACE TO FALL

  

  (Townes van Zandt)

  

  This is my favourite Townes number. Given a ÔByrdsÕ type folk rock 

  treatment (time that was revived?) IÕm sure it could be a huge hit for 

  someone. I put the fret numbers in parentheses behind the chords - it 

  helps to get the right sound. Originally appeared on ÔFlying ShoesÕ but 

  the best version is on TownesÕ live album: ÔRain on a Conga DrumÕ.

  

  (intro)  D(5) - hammer on B  D7(5) - hammer on/off B   G   D 

  	   Em   G   Em   D

  

  D(5)          (+/- B)        D7(5)  (+/-B)

  Well if I had no place to fall

  

        G      D

  And I needed to

  

          Em       G

  Could I count on you

  

            D             

  To lay me down

  

  

  Well IÕd never tell you no lies

  I donÕt believe itÕs wise

  You got pretty eyes

  WonÕt you stand me a round

  

  

          G         F#m        A

  I ainÕt much of a lover itÕs true

          G         F#m        A        E

  IÕm here and IÕm gone and IÕm forever blue

          A

  But IÕm sure wanting you

  

  

  The skyÕs full of silver and gold

  Tries to hide the sun

  But you know it canÕt be done

  Least not for long

  

  And if we help each other grow

  While the light of day

  Smiles down our way

  Oh we canÕt go wrong

  

      G            F#m       A

  But time sheÕs a fast old train

        G              F#m         A        E

  SheÕs here and sheÕs gone, she wonÕt come again

               A

  So wonÕt you take my hand

  

  Well if I had no place to fall

  And I needed to

  Could I count on you

  To lay me down
