Nick Drake - They're Leaving Me Behind (Cover)

Merry Lockdown!

Tramp moves on to the end of the street,
I listen to the echo of his hobnail feet.

For some there's a future to find,
But I think they're leaving me behind.

The world hurries on at its breakneck pace,
People fly by in their lifelong race.

For them there's a future to find,
And I think they're leaving me behind.

The chances, they come but, the chances have been lost.
Success can be gained, but at too great a cost.

For some there's a future to find,
But I think they're leaving me behind.

The wind sweeps up and goes back to its tree,
The rain flows by and moves on to the sea.

For them there's a future to find,
But I think they're leaving me behind.

Nick Drake is a difficult one to cover, but this was absolutely beautiful.

I love everything Drake has done. But this song in particular, I think it touches me deeply, the feeling of loneliness, abandonment, loss... You got the feeling, congrats.

Hey! That sounds great! Can we see your performance somewhere live? I mean live - not on youtube :)

Can you do a guitar tutorial on this song? 🙏🏻

[jaminsmith]

Perfect cover. I've been struggling getting that "think they're leaving me..." part down.

I didn't know the song, but this is really great

Very good, but Nick is a matter of feeling, I personally wouldn’t use metronomes.
