TIME HAS TOLD ME- Nick Drake
F C F C
Time has told me you're a rare rare find
Bb F Dm Dm/C G7/B G
A troubled cure for a troubled mind
F C F C
And time has told me not to ask for more
Eb F Dm Dm/C G/B G
For someday our ocean will find its shore
CHORUS #1:
E7 Eb
So I'll leave the ways of making me be
Fm7/C D(no3rd)/A
What I really don't want to be
E7 Eb
Leave the ways of making me love
Fm7/C D(no3rd)/A
What I really don't want to love
Time has told me you came with the dawn
A sole with no footprint a rose with no thorn
Your tears they tell me there's really no way
Of ending your troubles with things you can say
And time will tell you to stay by my side
To keep on trying till there's no more to hide
CHORUS #2:
So you'll leave the ways of making you be
What you really don't want to be
Leave the ways of making you love
What you really don't want to love
Time has told me you're a rare rare find
A troubled cure for a troubled mind
And time has told me not to ask for more
For someday our ocean will find its shore
(from Five Leaves Left, 1969)

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.
