Please feel free to send tab to the list. By the way, if anyone is working on learning a new song and wants to share the tab with the list, go ahead. Remember this list, although always Joni-centered, is open to all artists (especially those who use alternate tunings). I am working on a Nick Drake song right now called Things Behind the Sun. I got this tab off the Nick Drake site: http://www.algonet.se/~iguana/DRAKE/NDtabs2.html If you don't know Nick Drake he's great!! I usually feel like I'm breathing underwater when I listen to him. When my brother heard that I liked him he made me this great tape off the box set he has. As he handed me the tape he said, Sue, don't listen to this stuff if you are already depressed! (i guess that was his version of a warning label!) But you see I'm already a seasoned blue junkie so there's no danger here!! :-) but you've been warned!! take care, sue THINGS BEHIND THE SUN Standard Tuning, capo 4th fret Intro: |--------|--------|--------|--------| |----0---|----0---|----0---|-0------| |----2---|----2---|----2---|---2-2--| |----2-22|----2-22|----2-22|--2-----| |0-0-----|0-0-----|0-0-----|0---0---| |--------|--------|--------|------0-| |--------|--------|--------|--------|--------|--------| |----1---|----1---|--------|--------|--------|--------| |----2--2|-2--2---|----1---|----1---|----0-0-|-0---0--| |----2-2-|----2---|----2--2|-2--2--2|----0--0|-0-00--0| |0-0-----|0-0---02|----2-2-|----2-2-|----3-3-|--3---3-| |--------|--------|0-0-----|0-0-----|0-1-----|1-------| |--------|--------|--------|--------| |----0---|----0---|----0---|----0---| |----2---|----2---|----1---|----1---| |----0--0|-0--0--0|----0--0|-0--0--0| |----2-2-|----2-2-|----2-2-|----2-2-| |1-0-----|0-0-----|0-0-----|0-0-----| Verse: (basically a simplified version of the above) |--------|--------|--------|--------|--------|--------|--------|--------| |----1---|----1---|--------|--------|---(0)--|---(0)--|----0---|----0---| |----2--2|----2--2|----1---|----1---|----0---|----0---|----2---|----1---| |----2-2-|----2-2-|----2--2|----2--2|----0--0|----0--0|----0--0|----0--0| |0-0-----|0-0-----|----2-2-|----2-2-|----3-3-|----3-3-|02--2-2-|----2-2-| |--------|--------|0-0-----|0-0-----|0-1-----|1-1-----|--0-----|0-0-----| Second bit: |--------|--------|--------|--------|--------|--------|--------|--------| |----2---|----3---|----2---|----3---|----1---|--0--1--|----1---|--0--1--| |----2---|----4---|----2---|----2---|----0---|--0--0--|----2---|--2--2--| |----2---|----2---|----2---|----4---|----2--2|--0--2--|----0--0|--0--0--| |0-0---00|0-0---00|0-0---00|0-0---00|------3-|----3---|------0-|--------| |--------|--------|--------|--------|0-3-----|3-----3-|3-2-----|2---2-2-| (play above twice, then this:) |--------|--------|--------|--------|--------|--------| |--------|--------|----0---|--0-----|----0---|--0-----| |----0---|--0-----|----2---|--2-----|----1---|--1-----| |----0---|--0-----|----0---|--0-----|----0---|--0-----| |----3-33|--3-333-|02--2-22|--2-222-|----2-22|--2-22--| |0-1-----|1-------|--0-----|0-------|0-0-----|0-----0-| instrumental bit: |--------|--------|--------|--------|--------|--------|--------|--------| |----2---|--3-----|----2---|----3---|----1---|--0--1--|----1---|--0--1--| |----2---|--4-----|----2---|----2---|----0---|--0--0--|----2---|--2--2--| |----2---|--2-----|----2---|----4---|----2--2|--0--2--|----0--0|--0--0--| |0-0---00|0---000-|0-0---00|0-0---00|------3-|----3---|------0-|--------| |--------|--------|--------|--------|0-3-----|3-----3-|3-2-----|2---2-2-| |--------|--------|--------|--------|--------|--------| |--------|--------|----0---|----0---|----0---|----0---| |----0---|-0---0--|----2---|----2---|----1---|----1---| |----0--0|---00--0|----0--0|-0--0--0|----0--0|-0--0--0| |----3-3-|--3---3-|----2-2-|----2-2-|----2-2-|----2-2-| |0-1-----|1-------|1-0-----|0-0-----|0-0-----|0-0-----| The end bit just repeats bars from the above Tabbed by Chris Healey Things behind the sun (3:23) This song was probably written in 1967 or 1968. Nick played it live at Queen Elizabeth Hall, 21st February 1969. It was dropped from inclusion on 'Bryter Layter', a fact that made Joe Boyd very disappointed. Please beware of them that stare They'll only smile to see you while Your time away And once you've seen what they have been To win the earth just won't seem worth Your night or your day Who'll hear what I say. Look around you find the ground Is not so far from where you are But not too wise For down below they never grow They're always tired and charms are hired From out of their eyes Never surprise. Take your time and you'll be fine And say a prayer for people there Who live on the floor And if you see what's meant to be Don't name the day or try to say It happened before. Don't be shy you learn to fly And see the sun when day is done If only you see Just what you are beneath a star That came to stay one rainy day In autumn for free Yes, be what you'll be. Please beware of them that stare They'll only smile to see you while Your time away And once you've seen what they have been To win the earth just won't seem worth Your night or your day Who'll hear what I say. Open up the broken cup Let goodly sin and sunshine in Yes that's today. And open wide the hymns you hide You find reknown while people frown At things that you say But say what you'll say About the farmers and the fun And the things behind the sun And the people round your head Who say everything's been said And the movement in your brain Sends you out into the rain. - -- "Heart and humor and humility will lighten up your heavy load..." - Joni Mitchell ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 22 Dec 2001 10:56:37 -0600 From: Mark Domyancich Subject: Re: Bounced message question (Jolly Old Saint Nick Drake) Yes, if you don't have a copy of "Pink Moon" you must go out this weekend and buy it. It is amazing! And it wouldn't kill ya if you bought "Five Leaves Left" too. :) Have a good one, Mark NP-Nick, Which Will ------------------------------ End of wanderer-digest V1 #51 *****************************
