Deep down in the depths of forgotten dreams,
Am Asus4/F# Asus4/F E Am Asus4/F# Am Am
So far away so long ago it seems,
C C G G
The memory comes of a distant beach,
F F Esus4 E
Pale sand stretching far from reach,
Am Asus4/F# Asus4/F E Am Asus4/F#

It was then that I found my princess of the sand.
E E E E
As I traced the foam, pebbles beneath my feet,
I looked behind, I saw this one so sweet,
She came to me and I saw in her eyes,
The heavy toll of a thousand sighs,
I called her my princess of the sand.
She stared at me and my mind was in a maze,
As we moved along in a summer sea-dream haze,
She moved her mouth but there came no sound,
The message she brought can never be found,
But I called her my princess of the sand.
One moment we walked with the night breeze in our face,
Then I looked, she'd gone, of her presence there was no trace
Where she went or came from who can know,
Or if she'll ever return to help me know,
Who she is, my princess of the sand.
Sometime when the summer nights come back,
I'll go back to the sea, follow that sandy track,
I'll look around, hope to find
That strange young dream, close behind,
Am Am(add B)
I'll call her my princess of the sand.

This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official NICK DRAKE tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
