Neil Young - Hippie Dream: chords

G           Dm Am
Take my advice
                Dm G
Don't listen to me
              Dm Am
It ain't paradise
               Dm G
But it used to be
             Dm Am
There was a time
                    Dm G
When the river was wide
                     Dm        Am
And the water came running down
              Dm   G
To the rising tide
G
But the wooden ships
G
Were just a hippie dream
G
Just a hippie dream.

Don't bat an eye
Don't waste a word
Don't mention nothin'
That could go unheard
'Cause the tie-dye sails
Are the screamin' sheets
And the dusty trail
Leads to blood in the streets
And the wooden ships
Are a hippie dream
Capsized in excess
If you know what I mean

A
Just because it's over for you
       G
Don't mean it's over for me
         A
It's a victory for the heart
Every time the music starts
      G
So please don't kill the machine
G
Don't kill the machine
Bm
Don't kill the machine don't kill the machine
G
Don't kill the machine don't kill the machine
Bm
Don't kill the machine don't kill the machine
G
Don't kill the machine

A
Another flower child goes to seed
G
In an ether-filled room of meat hooks
        Bm
It's so ugly
   G
So ugly
