Nouel Tab par Laura Marling

[Intro]

C

    C              C
She sings along to sailor's song
G      C/G            G7  C/G
  In a dress that she made
G            C/G    A7
  When she's gone I   sing along
    F/C                     C
But    it doesn't sound the same
 
E/G# E/B Am     G/B  G/D C
Oh   Nouel, you sing so  well
F               F#dim
  Sing only for me
Am           E/G#
  Fickle and changeable
Dm                    G C/G G7 C/G G   G C/G A7   F/C C F/C C
  Though I may always be

  C                       C
I pulled a thorn from her tiny paw
G               C/G  G7   C/G
  Her feet were un - clean
G       C/G    A7
  Fetch water,   blessed twice
    F/C                 C
And    hand a sponge to me

E/G# E/B Am      G/B   G/D C
I    do  well to serve Nouel
F                        F#dim
  Whatever service I may be
Am           E/G#
  Fickle and changeable
Dm                 G C/G G7 C/G G   G C/G A7   F/C C F/C C
  Weighing down on me

    C                    C
She speaks a word and it gently turns
G            C/G G7   C/G
  To perfect metaphor
G              C/G   A7
  She likes to say I   only play
     F/C                            C
When    I know what I'm playing for

E/G# E/B Am     G/B  G/D C
Oh   Nouel, you know me  well
F                                F#dim
  And I didn't even show you the scar
Am           E/G#
  Fickle and changeable
Dm           G C/G G7 C/G G   G C/G A7   F/C C F/C C
  Semper femina

      C              C
She'd like to be the kind of free
G       C/G             G7   C/G
  Women still can't be alone
G       C/G    A7
  How I wish I   could hit the switch
     F/C                       C
That    keeps you from getting gone
 

E/G# E/B Am    G/B   G/D  C
Oh   Nouel, it hurts like hell
F                          F#dim
  When you're so afraid to die
Am       E/G#
  Semper femina
Dm      G C/G G7 C/G G   G C/G A7   F/C C F/C C
  So am I

    C             C
She lays herself across the bed
G     C/G        G7   C/G
  The Origine du Monde
G           C/G      A7
  Slight of shoulder,  long and legged
F/C                 C
   Her hair a faded blonde
 

E/G# E/B Am     G/B G/D C
Oh   Nouel, you sit so  well
F                     F#dim
  A thousand artists' muse
Am                E/G#         Dm   G C/G G7 C/G G
    But you'll be anything you choose
Am           E/G#           Dm   G C/G G7
  Fickle and changeable are you
C/G G  G C/G G7 C/G G  G C/G G7   C/G G G C/G A7   F/C C C C
And long        may that       continue
 

E/G# E/B Am      G/B   G/D C
I    do  well to serve Nouel
F                 F#dim    Am    E/G#
  My only guiding star_________
Dm         G C/G G7 C/G G   G C/G A7   F/C C C C   F/C C F/C C
  Semper femina
