Don't Think Twice, It's Alright



Recorded by Nick Drake
From the album "Tanworth In Arden"
Written by Bob Dylan
Transcribed by Clayton Perry  (guitarperry06@hotmail.com)


This is the way that I play the song. It's not too hard once you figure out the fingering pattern. 
Mostly, just play around with it and find the rhythm. Nick Drake's version chops off part of the first
verse, but I like to play it like Bob anyways. It's all pretty basic chords. If you have any
modifications, corrections, or requests for songs, email me at  guitarperry06@hotmail.com

Thanks, and enjoy.



Standard Tuning
Capo 3

...continue pattern with each verse.



Well it ain`t no use in turning on your light, babe
Light I`ve never known
Ain`t no use in turning on the light, babe
I`m on the dark side of the road
Wish there was something you could do or say
Something to make me change my mind and stay
We never did too much talking anyway
Don`t think twice, it`s all right 

And it ain`t no use in calling out my name, gal
Like you`ve never done before
It ain`t no use in calling out my name, gal
I can`t hear you anymore
I`m thinking and a wondering, walking down that road
I once loved a woman - A child I`m told
Gave her my heart, but she wanted my soul
Don`t think twice, it`s all right 

So long, honey-babe
Where I`m bound, I can`t tell
Goodbye is too good a word babe
I`ll just say, "Fare thee well"
I ain`t saying you treated me unkind
You could`ve done better, but I don`t mind
You just kind of wasted my precious time
Don`t think twice, it`s all right
