Now For the Verse:
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/n/neil_young/revolution_blues_tab.html ]
  Asus         Amin
Well, we live in a trailer
  Asus        Amin
at the edge of town
  Asus       Amin
You never see us
  Asus        Amin
'cause we don't come around.
         Fmaj7
We got twenty five rifles
  Fmaj7
just to keep
  Fmaj7                 Asus   Amin
the population down.
       Fmaj7
But we need you now,
   Fmaj7
and that's why
   Asus      Amin
I'm hangin' 'round.
      Fmaj7
So you be good to me
        Fmaj7              E
and I'll be good to you,
   E
And in this land of conditions
   Asus       Amin
I'm not above suspicion
 Asus         Amin
I won't attack you,
 Asus         Amin
but I won't back you.

   Asus           Amin
Well, it's so good to be here,
   Asus         Amin
asleep on your lawn.
   Asus       Amin
Remember your guard dog?
  Asus       Asus
Well, I'm afraid
  Asus      Amin
that he's gone.
     Fmaj7
It was such a drag
   Fmaj7
to hear him
  Fmaj7            Asus      Amin
whining all night long.
   Fmaj7
Yes, that was me with the doves,
    Fmaj7
setting them free
    Fmaj7
near the factory
  Asus         Amin
Where you built your computer,
love.
       Fmaj7
I hope you get the connection,
      Fmaj7
'cause I can't take
E
the rejection
    Asus     Amin
I won't deceive you,
   Asus       Amin
I just don't believe you.

Solo (just in the Amin pentatonic scale)

     Asus        Amin
Well, I'm a barrel of laughs,
   Asus      Amin
with my carbine on
  Asus       Amin
I keep 'em hoppin',
 Asus       Amin
till my ammunition's gone.
       Fmaj
But I'm still not happy,
  Fmaj7
I feel like
      Fmaj7            Asus     Amin
there's something wrong.
    Dmin
I got the revolution blues,

I see bloody fountains,
  Asus          Amin
And ten million dune buggies
  Asus          Asus
comin' down the mountains.
        Fmaj7
Well, I hear that Laurel Canyon
     Fmaj7
is full of famous stars,
 Asus         Amin
But I hate them worse than lepers
  Asus     Amin
and I'll kill them
 Asus   Amin
in their cars.
