TIME HAS TOLD ME- Nick Drake

                                  
 Time has told me you're a rare rare find
                            
  A troubled cure for a troubled mind
                                    
   And time has told me not to ask for more
                                
  For someday our ocean will find its shore

CHORUS #1:
                         
So I'll leave the ways of making me be
/               D(no3rd)/A
What I really don't want to be
                  
Leave the ways of making me love
/               D(no3rd)/A
What I really don't want to love

Time has told me you came with the dawn
A sole with no footprint a rose with no thorn
Your tears they tell me there's really no way
Of ending your troubles with things you can say
And time will tell you to stay by my side
To keep on trying till there's no more to hide

CHORUS #2:
So you'll leave the ways of making you be
What you really don't want to be
Leave the ways of making you love
What you really don't want to love

Time has told me you're a rare rare find
A troubled cure for a troubled mind
And time has told me not to ask for more
For someday our ocean will find its shore
