Neil Young - Bare Foot Floors guitar tab
BARFOOT FLOORS - NICOLETTE LARSON

NOTE: It was written by Neil Young. Nicolette explains on the CD that she
first heard the song while singing backup vocals for Neil (during Comes A
Time, I think, and it obviously did not make it to the album) and later asked
him if she could put it on her lullaby CD. I've never heard Neil perform
this one, but my guess is that he would use G, C, and D in place of the A, D,
and E Nicolette used.... If you have trouble going to sleep at night, or
have young children, get this CD! It is very mellow, and I highly recommend
it! Just remembering the many nights I spent pacing the Barefoot Floors with
my little ones brings a tear to my eye....
VERSE 1:
A
Sleep, baby, sleep
A
I know your day has been oh so long
D
Sleep, baby, sleep
D A
I know your day has been oh so long
E
The night falls at your feet
E
Now the day feels so complete
E D
Compared to darkness
D A
Sleep, baby, sleep
VERSE 2:
Talk, baby, talk
Sweet talk is all it's made of
Talk, baby, talk
Sweet talk is all it's made of
Promises of the morning ways,
New beginnings for another day
To spend together
Talk, baby, talk
instrumental passage - A E D A (similar to 2nd half of verse)
VERSE 3:
Love, baby, love
Has got me walkin' on these barefoot floors
Love, baby, love
Has got me walkin' on these barefoot floors
Find the light surrounding you
Sleep the night, 'til morning's dew
I will be here for you
Love, baby, love
