HAZEY JANE II- Nick Drake

TUNING: C G C F C E (no capo), can be played in D A D G D F# as well

G1 G2 F1 F2 Em9 D1 D2 RIFF 2 TIMES

Em9

And what will happen in the morning when the world

D1 D2 RIFF

It gets so crowded that you can't look out the window in the morning

Em9

And what will happen in the evening in the forest

With the weasel with the teeth that bite so sharp

D1 D2 RIFF

When you're not looking in the evening

Em9

But all the friends that you once knew are left behind

They kept you so safe and so secure amongst the books

D1 D2 RIFF

And all the records of your lifetime

Em9

What will happen, in the morning, when the world it gets so crowded

D1 D2 RIFF 2 TIMES

That you can't look out the window in the morning?

CHORUS #1:

D1 Em9 D1

Hey, take a little while to grow your brother's hair

D1 Em9 D1

And now, take a little while to make your sister fair

G1 G2

And now that the family is part of a chain

G1 G2 F1 Em7 RIFF B D1

Take off your high shade, start over again

G1 G2 F1 F2 Em9 D1

CHORUS #2:

And now take a little while to find your way in here

Now take a little while to make your story clear

And now that you're lifting your feet from the ground

Weigh up your anchor and have a look round

G1 G2 F1 F2 Em9 D1

D1 Em9 D1

RIFF

Let's sing a song for Hazey Jane, she's back again in my mind

NOTE: I use DADGDF# chord names even though the song is in CGCFCE because

I'm more familiar with DADGDF# names. It's hard to know what's going on

with all the horns on the record, but this is the general gist. I'm not

totally clear on everything. G2 and F2 are especially iffy chords.

(from Bryter Layter, 1970)
