After The Gold Rush
Written By Neil Young
Well,[D]I dreamed I saw the knights in[G] armour comin',
Sayin[D] somethin' about a[G] queen
There were[D] peasants singin' and[A] drummers drummin',
And the[G] archer split the[A] tree
There was a[Bm] fanfare blowin' [C]to the sun,
There was[G] floating on the[C] breeze
[D]Look at Mother Nature[A] on the run,
In the[C] Nineteen-Seven[G]ties
[D]Look at Mother Nature[A] on the run,in the[C]Nineteen-Seven[G]ties
I was[D] lying in a burned out[G] basement,with a[D]full moon in my[G] eye
I was [D]hoping for re[A]placement,when the[G] sun burst through the[A] sky
There was [Bm] band playing[C] in my head,and I[G]felt like getting [C]high
I was [D]thinking about what a[A] friend had said I was[C] hoping it was a[G] lie
[D]Thinking about what[A] friend had said, I was[C] hoping it was a[G] lie

Well I[D] dreamed I saw the silver[G]spaceship lyin' in the [D]yellow haze of the[G] sun
There were[D] children crying and[A] colours flying all a[G]round the chosen[A] one
All in a[Bm] dream, all [C]in a dream the [G]loading had be[C]gun
[D] Flying mother nature's[A] silver seed to a[C] new home in the[G] sun
