Lyr Req: Who Knows Where the Time Goes (Fairport C

Subject: Fairport Convention - Rosie
From: GUEST,Steve

Can anyone help with a site for tabs or lyrics for songs recorded by Fairport Convention in the late 60's and early 70's ???

I'm particularly looking for Rosie; Plainsmans Song; Poor will and the jolly hangman; Sloth and who knows where the time goes ???

Any assistance would be gratefully received (but please don't tell me to try olga !!!)

Steve

Here's one Steve. I don't have the others.

I play it a little differently myself and I have that as a .doc file if you want me to e-mail it to you.

All the best
Gary

{title:Who Knows Where the Time Goes?}
{st:Sandy Denny}
{define: G#m7 4 1 1 1 1 3 1}
{c:(capo 2)}
[E]Across the morning sky
[A]All the birds are l[E]eaving[A],
[E]Ah, how can they kn[A]ow
It's time for t[E]hem to go[A]?
[F#m]Before the [G#m7]winter fire
[F#m]We'll still be [G#m7]dreaming,[A]
[A]I do not count the t[E]ime.
[B]Who knows [A]where the time g[E]oes?
Who knows [F#m]where the t[A]ime g[E]oes?

Sad deserted shore
Your fickle friends are leaving,
Ah, but then you know
It's time for them to go.
But I will still be here,
I have no thought of leaving,
I do not count the time.
Who knows where the time goes?
Who knows where the time goes?

And I'm not going
While my love is near me,
I know it will be so,
'Till it's time to go.
So come the storms of winter
And the birds of spring again,
I do not fear the time.
Who knows how my love grows?
Who knows where the time goes?

Who knows where the time goes?
Who knows where the time goes?

Steve, type 'Rosie' in the blue box (upper right hand) and press GO. Several songs with that title or with the word in the lyrics will come up. I can't tell if YOUR Rosie is among them, not knowing the song. But 'Poor Will' is certainly there. [Poor Will] or simply Hangman should do the trick. Nothing came up for Plainsman. Oops, and I forgot to test Sloth, so do it yourself. Have fun! - Susanne

If you get stuck, I think I've got the Rosie LP. Bron.

Thanks to all for the responses and the pointers. If there are any suggestions on tab sites with the songs I am looking for I would be grateful.

Many thanks to Gary and yes please - if you could e-mail me the doc file I would be grateful.
