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.

I never felt magic crazy as this
D Em
I never saw moons near the meaning of the sea
D Em
I never held the motion in the palm of my hand
D Em
Or felt sweet breezes in the top of the tree
A7 C A7 D Em D Em
But now you're here brighten my northern sky
D Em
Been a long time that I'm waiting
D Em
Been a long time that I've blown
D Em
Been a long time that I've wondered
D Em
Through the people I have known
A7 C A7 D
Oh if you would and you could straighten my new mind's eye

Would you love me for my money
Would you love me for my head
Would you love me through the winter
Would you love me till I'm dead
Oh if you would and you could come grow your home on high
I never felt magic crazy as this
I never saw the moon neath the meaning of the sea
I never held emotion in the palm of my hand
Felt sweet breezes in the top of the tree
But now you're here brighten my northern sky
