Neil Young - Thrasher

^CThey were hiding behind hay bales They were ^Fplanting in the ^CFull Moon They had given ^C/Ball they ^Am7had for something ^Fnew ^G But the ^Clight of day was on them They could ^Fsee the thrasher ^Ccoming And the ^Cwater ^C/Bshone like ^Am7diamonds in the ^Fdew ^G

^FAnd I was just ^Ggetting up To ^Chit the road before its ^Flight trying to catch an ^Ghour on the ^Csun ^{Cmaj7 Cmaj7 C F}When I saw those thrasher^Gs rolling by Looking ^Cmore than t^C/Bwo lanes w^Am7ide ^Am/C I was ^Dm7feeling like my day had just ^Gbegun

Where the ^Ceagles glide descending There's an ^Fancient river ^Cbending Down the ^Ctimeless ^C/Bgorge of ^Am7changes ^Am7/Gwhere s^Fleeplessness a^Gwaits I ^Csearched out my companions who were ^Flost in crystal ^Ccanyons When the ^Caimless ^C/Bblade of ^Am7science ^Am7/Gslashed the ^Fpearly gates ^G

^FIt was then I knew I'd ^Ghad enough burned my c^Credit card for f^Fuel ^FHeaded out to where the ^Gpavement turns to ^Csand ^{Cmaj7 C} With a ^Fone-way ticket to the ^Gland of truth and my ^Csuitcase ^C/Bin my ^Am7hand ^Am7/G How I ^Dm7lost my friends I still dont understan^Gd

^CThey had the best selection They were ^Fpoisoned with pro^Ctection There was ^Cnothing ^C/Bthat they ^Am7needed ^{Am7/G F}nothing left to ^Gfind They were ^Clost in rock formations Or ^Fbecame park bench mut^Cations On the the ^Csidewalks ^C/Band in the ^Am7stations ^Am7/Gthey were waitin^Fg waiting^{G F}So I got bored and ^Gleft them there They were ^Cjust dead weight to ^Fme ^FBetter down the ^Groad without that ^Cload ^{Cmaj7 Cmaj7 C F}Bring's back the time I was ^Geight or nine I was ^Cwatching my Mama's ^Am7TV ^Am7/G It was that ^Dm7great Grand Canyon rescue episod^Ge With the ^Cvulture glides descending On an ^Fasphalt highway ^Cbending Through ^Clibraries ^C/Band muse^Am7ums ^Am7/Ggalaxie^Fs and stars ^G

Down the ^Cwindy halls of friendship To the ^Frose clipped by the ^Cbullwhip The ^Cmotel of ^C/Blost c^Am7ompanions ^Am7/Gwaits with ^Fheated pool and ^Gbar ^FBut me I'm not s^Gtopping there Got my o^Cwn row left to ^Fhoe ^FJust another ^Gline in the field of ^Ctime ^Cmaj7

^FWhen the thrashers come I'll be ^Gstuck in the sun Like the ^Cdinosaurs in ^Am7shrines ^Am7/G But I'll ^Dm7know the time has come to give what's ^Gmine
