Little village - Van Morrison From the album: What's Wrong With This Picture? Bb Eb Bb Little village baby, ain't large enough to be a town Eb Bb From a little village baby, ain't large enough to be a town F Gotta get away from the city Eb Bb It's gonna bring you down Bb Eb Heard the voice of the silence, in the evening Bb In the long cool summer nights Eb Heard the voice of the silence, in the evening Bb In the long cool summer nights F Telling me not to worry Eb Bb Everything's gonna be all right Bb There's only two kinds of truth Eb Bb Baby let's get it straight from the start Eb There's only two kinds of truth Bb Let's get it straight from the start F It's all what you believe Eb Bb Baby in your head and your heart Sax solo 1 Heard the bells ringing Voices singing soft and low Heard the bells ringing Voices are singing soft and low Way up in the mountain, little village in the snow Raining in the forest Just enough to magnetise the leaves Raining in the forest Just enough to magnetise the leaves We'll go walking baby with the moonlight shining down through the trees Little village, way up on the mountainside Little village baby, way up on the mountainside Way across the ocean with you by my side Sax solo 2 Tabbed by YuriVan Morrison - Little Village Chords :: indexed at Ultimate Guitar.
About artist:
Known as "Van the Man" by his fans, Morrison first rose to prominence as the lead singer of the Northern Irish band Them, penning their seminal 1964 hit "Gloria". A few years later, Morrison left the band for a successful solo career.
Morrison has pursued an idiosyncratic musical path. Much of his music is tightly structured around the conventions of American soul and R&B, such as the popular singles "Brown Eyed Girl", "Moondance", "Into The Mystic","Domino" and "Wild Night". An equal part of his catalogue consists of lengthy, loosely connected, spiritually inspired musical journeys that show the influence of Celtic tradition, jazz, and stream-of-consciousness narrative, such as his classic album Astral Weeks and lesser known works such as Veedon Fleece and Common One. The two strains together are sometimes referred to as "Celtic Soul".
Morrison's career, spanning some five decades, has influenced many popular musical artists. He was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1993 and the Songwriters Hall of Fame in 2003. In 2000, Morrison ranked #25 on American cable music channel VH1's list of its 100 greatest artists of rock and roll, and in 2004, Rolling Stone Magazine ranked Van Morrison 42nd on their list of The Immortals: 100 Greatest Artists of All Time.[4][5] Paste Magazine ranked him 20th in their list of 100 Greatest Living Songwriters in 2006 and Q Magazine ranked him 22nd on their list of 100 Greatest Singers in April 2007.[6][7]
