Timothy Charles Buckley III (February 14, 1947 – June 29, 1975) was an experimental vocalist and performer who incorporated jazz, psychedelia, funk, soul, and avant-garde rock, in a short career spanning the late 1960s and early 1970s, ending with his death at age 28 from an alcohol-heroin overdose.
Buckley often regarded his tenor voice as an instrument, a talent most noticeable on his albums Happy Sad, Lorca, and Starsailor. His first marriage was to Mary Guibert, with whom he had a child, musician Jeff Buckley.

No Man Can Find The War (Beckett/Buckley)
TIM BUCKLEY From Goodbye And Hello, 1967
(like much of this album, capoed at the first fret)
Intro: Dm / / / F / / / G / / / Bb / / / Dm
(Dm) Photographs of guns and flame FG Scarlet skull and distant game BbDm Bayonet and jungle grin (Dm) Nightmares dreamed by bleeding men FG Lookouts tremble on the shore BbDm But no man can find the war
Tape recorders echo scream Orders fly like bullets stream Drums and cannons laugh aloud Whistles come from ashen shroud Leaders damn the world and roar But no man can find the war
GF Is the war across the sea? BbG Is the war behind the sky? EGF Have you each and all gone blind? BbDm Is the war inside your mind?
Humans weep at human death All the talkers lose their breath Movies paint a choas tale Singers see and poets wail All the world knows the score But no man can find the war
