Sugar Mountain chords (live version)
Neil Young *
D C G F D Dsus4 C G
G F
Oh, to live on Sugar Mountain,
G F
with the barkers and the colored balloons
G F
You can't be twenty on Sugar Mountain,
Dm G
though you're thinking that you're leaving there too soon;
Dm G
you're leaving there too soon.
G F
It's so noisy at the fair,
G
but all your friends are there
F
And the candy floss you had,
G
and your mother and your dad.
G F
Oh, to live on Sugar Mountain,
G F
with the barkers and the colored balloons
G F
You can't be twenty on Sugar Mountain,
Dm G
though you're thinking that you're leaving there too soon;
Dm G
you're leaving there too soon.
D C G F D Dsus4 C G
G F
There's a girl just down the aisle,
G
oh, to turn and see her smile.
F
You can hear the words she wrote,
G
as you read the hidden note.
