The two 4-bar sequences just alternate through the song, with minor variations.
This song can be played in Drop D tuning without a capo. This adds 2 to the
top string fret numbers in the tab and 3 to the second string.
You get the same notes, just with fewer open strings.
Using Nick's tuning gives you the sound of the open strings, and the simpler fretting.

 And what will happen in the morning When the world it gets so crowded That you can't look out the window in the morning? And what will happen in the evening In the forest with the weasel with the teeth That bite so sharp when you're not looking in the evening? And all the friends that you once knew are left behind They kept you safe and so secure Amongst the books and all the records of your lifetime? What will happen in the morning When the world it gets so crowded That you can't look out the window in the morning? Hey, take a little while to grow your brothers hair And now, take a little while to make your sister fair And now that the family is part of a chain Take off your eyeshade start over again Now take a little while to find your way in here Now take a little while to make your story clear Now that you're lifting your feet from the ground Weigh up your anchor and never look round Let's sing a song for Hazey Jane She's back again in my mind If songs were lines in a conversation The situation would be fine

The bracketed notes only occur occasionally. This can sound a bit
thin unaccompanied, so one alternative is to play the (0)'s as 4's.
Link to verse 2 is just the "saddle up" section
Link into verse 3:
|--------|--------|--------|--------|--------|--------|--------|--------|
|----0---|--0-----|----0---|--0-----|0-----0-|----0---|----0---|--0-----|

|--------|--------|1-1-----|1-----1-|3---3-1-|--1-----|--------|--------|
(*)
Twice: second time do 6 bars then go into intro/verse pattern.
Unaccompanied, the chord at * might sound better as 3x320, or 35320 or 3532x,
as it includes a note that is otherwise only in the string section.
End of last chorus:

 A city freeze get on your knees Pray for warmth and green paper A city drought, you're down and out See your trousers don't taper Saddle up kick your feet Ride the range of a London street Travel to a local plane Turn around and come back again And at the chime of a city clock Put up your road block Hang on to your crown For a stone in a tin can Is wealth to the city man Who leaves his armour down Stay indoors beneath the floors Talk with neighbours only The games you play make people say You're either weird or lonely A city star won't shine too far On account of the way you are And the beads around your face Make you sure to fit back in place And at the beat of a city drum See how your friends come in twos Or threes or more For the sound of a busy place Is fine for a pretty face Who knows what a face is for The city clown will soon fall down Without a face to hide in And he will lose if he won't choose The one he may confide in Sonny boy with smokes for sale Went to ground with a face so pale And never heard about the change Showed his hand and fell out of range In the light of a city square Find out that face that's fair Keep it by your side When the light of the city falls You fly to the city walls Take off with your bride But at the chime of a city clock Put up your road block Hang on to your crown For a stone in a tin can Is wealth to the city man Who leaves his armour down

 Oh well. No one said this would be easy... I could have been a sailor Could have been a cook A real live lover Could have been a book I could have been a signpost Could have been a clock As simple as a kettle Steady as a rock I could be here and now I would be, I should be, but how? I could have been One of these things first I could have been One of these things first I could have been your pillar Could have been your door I could have stayed beside you Could have stayed for more I could have been your statue Could have been your friend A whole long lifetime Could have been the end I could be yours so true I would be, I should be, through and through I could have been One of these things first I could have been One of these things first I could have been a whistle Could have been a flute A real live giver Could have been a boot I could have been a signpost Could have been a clock As simple as a kettle Steady as a rock I could be even here I would be, I should be, so near I could have been One of these things first I could have been One of these things first

 Do you curse where you come from? Do you swear in the night? Will it mean much to you If I treat you right? Do you like what you're doing? Would you do it some more? Or will you stop once and wonder What you're doing it for? Hey slow, Jane, make sense Slow, slow, Jane, cross the fence Do you feel like a remnant Of something that's past? Do you find things are moving Just a little too fast? Do you hope to find new ways Of quenching your thirst? Do you hope to find new ways of doing Better than your worst? Hey slow, Jane, let me prove Slow, slow, Jane, we're on the move Do it for you Sure that you would do the same for me one day So try to be true Even if it's only in your hazey way Can you tell if you're moving With no mirror to see? If you're just riding a new man Looks a little like me? Is it all so confusing? Is it hard to believe? When the winter is coming can you Sign up and leave Hey slow, Jane, clear your eye Slow, slow, Jane, fly on by

 Please give me a second grace Please give me a second face I've fallen far down the first time around Now I just sit on the ground in your way Now if it's time for recompense for what's done Come, come sit down on the fence in the sun And the clouds will roll by And we'll never deny It's really too hard For to fly Please tell me your second name Please play me your second game I've fallen so far for the people you are I just need your star for a day So come, come ride in my streetcar by the bay For now I must know how fine you are in your way And the sea sure as I But she won't need to cry For it's really too hard For to fly
