Listen, Listen - Sandy Denny
This is a ridiculously simple song, turned into one of Sandy's most beautiful ones by
the way she turns the harmony of the melody around and inside out.

Intro: G
C G
The young boy rose his pretty face,
C G
All for to feel the salty spray.
C G6
When storms are mustering, they say
Am D G
I'll come and take you all away.
C G
I am a traveller by trade,
C G
I only have what I have made.
C G6
A fortune teller too they say,
Am D G
And I can take you all away.

Listen listen to him do.
C G
He is the one who is for you.
C G
Listen, they say
Am D G
He'll come and take us all away.
G
He--------
(chorus)
C G
And over there the young man stayed,
C G
Upon on the rocks so rough and grey.
C G6
Watching the boy, watching the day
Am D G
Thinking of how he came to be.
C G
A young man he, he is so real,
C G
And never more to go astray.
C G6
He is of value now they say,
Am D G
And he can take himself away.
(chorus)
Outro: F Am G
