Biography:
Nick Drake (Nicholas Rodney Drake, Rangoon, Burma, June 19, 1948 - Tanworth-in-Arden, England, November 25, 1974) was an English folk singer known for his gentle, enigmatic songs and his virtuosic right-hand finger picking technique.
Although he recorded only three albums, critics and fellow musicians hold his work in very high esteem. Drake failed to find a wide audience during his lifetime and had a strong aversion to performing. Since his death, however, Drake's music has gained a significant cult following.

[Intro]
A A/Eb Aadd11 A
[Verse]
A A/Eb Aadd11 A
Summer was gone and the heat died down
A A/Eb Aadd11 A
And Autumn reached for her golden crown
D A D A
I looked behind as I heard a sigh
A A/Eb Aadd11 A
But this was the time of no reply
[Verse]
A A/Eb Aadd11 A
The sun went down and the crowd went home
A A/Eb Aadd11 A
I was left by the roadside all alone
D A D A
I turned to speak as they went by
A A/Eb Aadd11 A
But this was the time of no reply
[Chorus]
A5 G5
The time of no reply
A5 G5
Is calling me to stay
A5 G5
There is no hello and no goodbye
F5 E
To leave there is no way
[Verse]
A A/Eb Aadd11 A
The trees on the hill had nothing to say
A A/Eb Aadd11 A
They would keep their dreams till another day
D A D A
So they stood and thought and wondered why
A A/Eb Aadd11 A
For this was the time of no reply
[Verse]
A A/Eb Aadd11 A
Time goes by from year to year
A A/Eb Aadd11 A
And no one asks why I am standing here
D A D A
But I have my answer as I look to the sky
A A/Eb Aadd11 A
But this was the time of no reply
[Chorus]
A5 G5
The time of no reply
A5 G5
Is calling me to stay
A5 G5
There is no hello and no goodbye
F5 E
To leave there is no way
