If anyone has a decent TAB for this, or even some ideas of tunings or how to play it, I would really appreciate it.
I can't find any lyric sheets anywhere, so I have tried to listen and work out the words. If anyone knows the words and can spot any mistakes in my translation below, please let me know.
Many thanks.
And as she moves in the morning
Breaking shadows of the day
She looks out the window sees the mist lying over the land
Like a lover in grey
And as she moves in the morning
You hear the mist softly say
Now is the time
Now is the time
To go to her
And as the spirit lies in fragments
Broken pieces on the ground
Pick her a bunch of her favourite thoughts
And show her what you have found
And as the spirit lies in fragments
Broken dreams on the ground
Now is the time
Now is the time
To go to her
And as the storm within you rises
Recalling burns along your bones
And dirty tattered clouds of thoughts go racing through your understanding
And you know she's going to be alone
And as the storm within you rises
The cold wind burns along your bones
And now is the time
Now is the time
To go to her

Great song! The two voices work so well together, and the two guitar parts intertwine beautifully.
The one to the left sounds like standard tuning but the one more to the right doesn't is about all I can say at first hearing and could well be wrong!
Your words correspond with what I heard too, except that "Recalling..." should be "The cold wind..." as per the final stanza.
Interestingly, the lady seems to sing "When.." as he sings "And as..." in the first line of both of the last two stanzas. (There are several earlyish Beatles recordings where backing vocals sing an occasional word differently from the lead voice, and/or one backing vocalist sings something differently from the others.)

I have the LP with a different cover but no tab I'm afraid.
This guy might be able to help you.

Thank you Keith, great input matey.
Phil, thank you, Chris is a great guitarist and I watch all of his videos, and his cover is the best around. I 'sort of' worked out some parts from watching Chris, but it's hard as the video blends between the two guitar parts and the lady who sings with him too, so to actually see the main guitar part is tricky (on the other video he did with Rebecca Hall), this video is a little easier to see what he's doing though.
It's such a great song !

Great guitar playing, but its a bit hippyish for my tastes.
