Album : To Find Me Gone folk PlayStop



I'm not sure of all the words. Also, I don't know if I'm in the right key~ my
guitar's decided on a key it likes and there's no budging it, so I've got it in
the key of D simply for my ease of playing. A key-change might be needed to play
along with the original, but I hope these chords work for you if you're playing on
your own or with your band. I hope I've made it all nice and clear. Enjoy. Love, Dan.

VETIVER~ 'IDLE TIES'
{brisk waltz-time}

INTRO:


D A D A D A D A D A D A D A D A
{for several bars. 2 strums on the D; 1 on the A. This pattern forms the basis of
the song. I'll show you how many strums to play on the rest of the chords as they
crop up, by putting a number in a twirly bracket next to the chord, eg A{3} means
play 3 strums on an A chord.

VERSE 1:

D A D A D A D A
I walk alone but I feel you there

You're with me tonight

VERSE 2:

D A D A D A D A
Put on a tape that you made for me

A{3} G{3} A{6}
It's got Marc Bolan and Vashti

Ring in my ear like a mission bell

Come we'll go dive in the inkwell

Now the wind answers your telephone

Well it'll get to her once you're underground

Signal can't carry in the train down
