Note :
I've never seen any tab of this very famous song
on any site nor in any magazine or song book. I
had first got a guitar picking version from memory
from the radio. I had released a former version of the
tab on this web page.
Owing to this
page I could get the original version of the song (
thank you Michael !) and I carefully tabbed it so this
new tab is far closer to the original sung by Harry
Nilsson. You will find here the tab, the lyrics and an
MP3 which I recorded myself with the D-28 that you see
here above.( I am not an exceptional guitar player. ).
More recently I made a video demo on Youtube (here
below) Update : (august
2018) Considering the interest shown by some
Youtube users I still improved the tab to get closer
still to the original (Nilsson's) version. Click on the
loudspeaker to download the audio demo
played in fast picking

| Everybody's talkin’ at me I don’t hear a word they're sayin’ Only the echoes of my mind People stop and stare I can't see their faces Only the shadows of their eyes I'm goin’ where the sun keeps shinin’ Through the pourin’ rain Goin’ where the weather Suits my clothes… Banking off of the northeast winds Sailin’ on summer breeze And skippin' over the ocean Like a stone Who-o-o-a whoa-whoa-whoa-whoa… Whoa-whoa whoa-whoa whoa-whoa-whoa… Who-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-a… I'm goin’ where the sun keeps shinin’ Through the pourin’ rain Goin’ where the weather Suits my clothes Banking off of the northeast winds Sailin’ on summer breeze And skippin' over the ocean Like a stone Everybody's talkin’ at me Can’t hear a word they're sayin’ Only the echoes of my mind I won’t let you leave my love behind No I won’t let you leave… Whoa…..whoa-a-h-h-h-h I won’t let you leave my love behind (fade)
