Nico, Lou Reed & John Cale - Little Sister (1967)
Transcribed 27/12-2015 by Jon Malmin ([email protected])
Tuning: Standard (Capo 3rd fret!)
These chords are for guitar with a capo on the 3rd fret. The song is in the key of F major, so if you want to
play it on piano for example, the chords would be F and Bb (instead of D and G, respectively).
In the original version, Lou fingerpicks the chords in quite a varied way, so just experiment with the notes.
If I were to strum the chords, this is the strumming pattern I would use (the time signature is 6/8. Dots
denote sixteenth notes):
1 . 2 . 3 . 4 . 5 . 6 .
D D U D U D D U D U
[Intro]
D G (x2)
[Verse 1]
D G
Don't call me home, little sister
D G
Before the night is done
D G
My love and I are fleeing
D G
Running into the sun
[Chorus]
D G
Turn to fly, go away
D G
Little bird, please don't stay
D G
Fare thee well
[Verse 2]
D G
Take up all your jewels and gold
D G
Bury them away in the earth
D G
Let your memory reduce them to dust
D G
But don't forget the knife that was thrust
[Chorus]
D G
Turn to fly, go away
D G
Little bird, please don't stay
D G
Fare thee well
[Interlude]
D G (x4)
[Verse 3]
D G
Frozen kiss by the fountain
D G
Running into the sea
D G
Where shadows choose their horrors
D G
Designed for music
[Chorus]
D G
Turn to fly, go away
D G
Little bird, please don't stay
D G
Fare thee well
[Outro]
D G
The song then ends on a D chord.
