Grace - Jeff Buckley
00:00 / 00:00
Tabs and lyrics
Tunning: Drop D (D A D G B E)
Author/Artist: Jeff Buckley
Title: Grace
Tabber: Andrew Biles (from the Jeff Buckley book)

I've tried explaining the order of this song along the way, so before trying
to play it straight out, I recommend just trying to follow the song through.
This is probably one of the easier Jeff Buckley songs to play, but it has some
really nice parts and some quite awkward strumming patterns.
The only real symbols that were needed for this song were pull-offs (p),
hammers (h), mutes (x) and the whammy bar (~ - appears under tab staffs)

Drop D - D, A, D, G, B, d

[Lyrics]

There's the moon asking to stay
Long enough for the clouds to fly me away
Well it's my time coming, i'm not afraid to die
My fading voice sings of love,
But she cries to the clicking of time
Of time

Wait in the fire...

And she weeps on my arm
Walking to the bright lights in sorrow
Oh drink a bit of wine we both might go tomorrow
Oh my love
And the rain is falling and i believe
My time has come
It reminds me of the pain
I might leave
Leave behind

Wait in the fire...

And I feel them drown my name
So easy to know and forget with this kiss
I'm not afraid to go but it goes so slow

Tunning: Drop D (D A D G B E)
________________
/ Jeff Buckley / "I think the fire is maybe what you could call the torment
/ Grace / of existence, the continuous struggle to understand and
/ Grace / rationalise one's own existence and being. I think in this
/_______________/ song JB is saying that he has come to accept that the
struggle cannot be won against death in the end - not that he
necessarily wants to die, but more that he is no longer afraid to give in to the
ultimate enigma of death, the extinguishing of the 'fire' of existence - "I'm
not afraid to go but it goes so slow." Not at all negative in my opinion.
Perhaps a little spooky in conjunction with his young death." - caitsith01


Tuning: Drop D (D A D G B E)

[Verse]

"
1. There's the moon asking to stay
Long enough for the clouds to fly me away
Oh, it's my time coming, I'm not afraid, afraid to die

2. And she weeps on my arm
Walking to the bright lights in sorrow
Oh, drink a bit of wine, we both might go tomorrow, oh, my love

3. And I feel them drown my name
So easy to know and forget with this kiss
I'm not afraid to go, but it goes so slow
"

But she cries to the clicking of time, of time

2. And the rain is falling and I believe my time has come
It reminds me of the pain I might leave, leave behind
