 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 don't too wise
 
 For down below they never grow
 they're always tired and charms are hired
 from out of their eyes
 
 never surprise

 Don't be shy you'll learn to fly

 Things behind the sun - Nick Drake
 Album - Pink moon
 
 I have figured out how I can play that song and not what Nick's doing. First
 of all, I'm not so good at playing, and second, I can't hear it exact enough.
 Basically this means that I got the chords right but the picking wrong. (He's
 playing so many more notes). Any suggestions welcome.
 
 Intro and first theme:
 
 E ----1---|----1---|----0---|----0---|----0---|----0---|----0---|----0---|
 B ----3---|----3---|----2---|----2---|----1---|----1---|----2---|----2---|
 G ----2---|----2---|----2---|----2---|----0---|----0---|----2---|----2---|
 D 0-0-----|0-0--0h2|----0---|--------|--------|--------|--------|--------|
 A --------|--------|0-0-----|0-0---0-|1-1-----|1-1--1h3|0-0-----|0-0-----|
 E --------|--------|--------|--------|--------|--------|--------|--------|
 
   Dm       Dm        A        A        C/Bb     C/Bb      A        A
 
 Dm         
 Please beware of them that stare
 A
 they'll only smile to see you while
 C/Bb
 your time away
 A
 
 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	(repeat C/Bb and A)
 
 Look around you find the ground
 is not so far from where you are
 but don't too wise
 
 For down below they never grow
 they're always tired and charms are hired
 from out of their eyes
 
 never surprise
 
 theme two:
 
 E ----2---|----3----|----2---|--3-----|----0---|----0---|----0---|----0---|
 B ----3---|----3----|----3---|--3-----|----1---|----1---|----2---|----2---|
 G ----2---|----2----|----2---|--2-----|----0---|----0---|----0---|----0---|
 D 0-0-----|0-0------|0-0-----|0---0---|--------|--------|--------|--------|
 A --------|---------|--------|------0-|1-1-----|1-1--1h3|0-0-----|0-0-----|
 E --------|---------|--------|--------|--------|--------|--------|--------|
   
   D        Dsus4     D        Dsus4    C/Bb     C/Bb     A        A
 
 D                  Dsus4
 Take your time and you'll be fine
 D                Dsus4
 And say a prayer for people there
 C/Bb
 who live on the floor
 A
 
 And it you see what's meant to be
 Don't name the day or try to say
 it happened before
 
 
 
 Theme one:  
 
 Don't be shy you'll learn to fly
 and see the sun when day is done
 if only you see
 
 Just what you are beneath the 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
 
 Theme two:
 
 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
 
 Theme three:
 
 Previous picking on chords C/Bb and A:
 
 C/Bb             A
 but say what you say
 C/Bb                      A
 About the farmers and the fun
 C/Bb                      A    (etc.)
 And the things behind the sun
 And the people in your head
 who say everything's been said
 And the movement in your brain
 sends you out into the rain
 
 I end like this:
  
 E ----2---|----3----|----7---|5-------|--------|--------|--------|--------|
 B ----3---|----3----|----8---|7-------|--------|--------|--------|--------|
 G ----2---|----2----|----7---|7-------|--------|--------|--------|--------|
 D 0-0-----|0-0------|0-0-0---|0-------|--------|--------|--------|--------|
 A --------|---------|--------|--------|--------|--------|--------|--------|
 E --------|---------|--------|--------|--------|--------|--------|--------|
 
   D        Dsus4     G/D      A
 
 Nick doesn't go that many frets up, but I like what I do so.. I haven't 
 figured what he does.
