NOTES:-

I've not bothered to type in the timing of the notes, but it's very

easy to figure out just by listening to the CD; at least you'll know

where to put your fingers...

There are places in the song where there are minor variations, but I

think it's nicer if you just put these in for yourself. Whatever Nick

Drake was at the time of Pink Moon, he certainly wasn't a

perfectionist

in terms of rigid guitar playing. Keep it sounding scruffy and loose

and

you won't go far wrong.
