NOTHING MORE
Sandy Denny
My fDriend I know you’ve sFuffered,
AltChough you are still Gyoung.
DWhy was it you who’d Fnot take help
CFrom anyGone?
Oh it’s Dtrue, it's very Ftrue, he said,
Some Chard times I have Gknown,
But DI have always overFcome them
COn my Gown.
Oh the Dpearls that you hold Fin your hand
CThey are beautiful to Gsee,
But you Dshow them not to Fanyone,
CNot even Gme.
For Dyou are like the Fothers, he said.
I Cnever can be Gsure
That Dyou wish just to see the Fpearls
And Cnothing Gmore.
Why cDan you not see rFeason?
Our lCives they are not lGong.
DWhy can you tFake no time
To tCell us all we’re Gwrong?
My tDune it does not cFhange, he said,
And nCeither does your Gsong,
And Dwords I use them Frarely
CWhen I’m all Galone.

NOTHING MORE

Sandy Denny

D F

My friend I know you’ve suffered,

C G

Although you are still young.

D F

Why was it you who’d not take help

C G

From anyone?

D F

Oh it’s true, it's very true, he said,

C G

Some hard times I have known,

D F

But I have always overcome them

C G

On my own.

D F

Oh the pearls that you hold in your hand

C G

They are beautiful to see,

D F

But you show them not to anyone,

C G

Not even me.

D F

For you are like the others, he said.

C G

I never can be sure

D F

That you wish just to see the pearls

C G

And nothing more.

D F

Why can you not see reason?

C G

Our lives they are not long.

D F

Why can you take no time

C G

To tell us all we’re wrong?

D F

My tune it does not change, he said,

C G

And neither does your song,

D F

And words I use them rarely

C G

When I’m all alone.
