After The Goldrush (Complete) + Lyrics

I like to play this in the lower keys
A and G is nice, originally played in D

7 -8 -8 8 8 8 8 -8
Well I dreamed I saw the knights~~~~
-8 -8 7 7 7
In armor coming
7 -8 -8 8 8 8 -8 7 7
Saying something a – bout~~ a queen
7 -8 8 8 -9 8
There were peasants singin’
8 8 -8 -8 -8
And drummers drummin’
-8 -8 8 7 7 8 -8
And the archer split the tree
9 -10 9 8 8 8 8 -8 7 -8
There was a fanfare blowin’ to the sun
7 -8 8 -8 7 7 -8
That was floating on the breeze
8 8 8 8 -9 8 8 8 -8 -8
Look at mother na~~~ture on the run
-8 -8 8 7 7 -6 7
In the nineteen seventies
8 8 8 8 -9 8 8 8 -8 -8
Look at mother na~~~ture on the run
-8 -8 8 -8 7 7 -6 7
In the nine-teen~~~ seventies

7 -8 -8 8 8 8 8 -8 -8 -8 7
I was lyin’ in a burned~~~ out basement
7 -8 8 8 8 7 7
With the full moon in my eyes
7 -8 8 8 -9 8 8 -8
I was hopin’ for replacement
8 -8 8 7 7 8 -8
When the sun burst through the sky
9 -10 9 8 8 8 -8 7 -8
There was a band playin’ in my head
7 -8 8 7 7 7 -8
And I felt like getting high
7 -8 8 8 8 8 8 8 8 -8 -8
I was thinkin’ a-bout what a friend had said
-8 -8 8 -8 7 7 -6 7
I was hopin’ it was a lie
8 8 8 8 8 8 8 -8 -8
Thinkin’ a-bout what a friend had said
-8 -8 8 -8 7 7 -6 7
I was hopin’ it was a lie

7 -8 -8 8 8 8 8 -8 -8 7
Well I dreamed I saw the silver spaceships
7 7 7 -8 -8 8 8 -8 7 7
Flyin’ in the yellow haze of the sun
7 -8 8 8 8 -9 8
There were children cry~~~in’
8 8 -8 -8 -8
And colors flyin’
8 -8 8 7 7 8 -8
All around the chosen ones

9 -10 9 8 8 -8 7 -8
All in a dream — all in a dream
7 8 -8 7 7 7 -8
The load~~~ing had be-gun
8 8 8 8 -9 8 8 8 -8 -8
Flying mother nat~~~ure’s silver seed
-8 -8 8 -8 7 7 -6 7
To a new home~~~ in the sun
8 8 8 8 -9 8 8 8 -8 -8
Flying mother nat~~~ure’s silver seed
-8 -8 8 -8 7 7 7
To a new home ~~~ ~~~~~~~~
