🎸 Double E chords by Neil Young

Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)




Intro:
A D F G


Verse 1:
A
Back in the country
        D
Livin' on the double e
    F    G
In the sunshine of her life
A

There's a ready young filly
A
And mom and daddy
D
Won't let her leave
    F     G     A
Mom and papa won't let her go.


Chorus:
G       D    A
But when they go out dancin'
  G     D   A
She breaks out on her own
G          D    A
She's hot enough to burn the house down
  G          D
And mom and daddy don't know.


Instrumental:
A D F G A


Verse 2:
A
When Edith and Earl
          D
Renamed the double e
   F      G
They nearly made history
A
neighbours rose up
               D
And some of them were mad as hell
     F       G   A
'cause it used to be the double L.


Chorus:
G      D      A
Change comes slow in the country
      G        D     A
When you're new, there's a lot of distrust
G     D   A
Years pass by uneventful,
  G         D
And memories turn to dust.


Instrumental:
A D F G A


Verse 3:
A
Meanwhile granny
          C   D
Has got her bright colors on
   F      G
The sunshine in her eyes
A
Cruisin' by the bars
            C    D
And honky tonks where she met grandpa
  F      G      A
And caught that young man's eye.


Chorus:
G   D     A
Dusty white eldorado
G     D     A
Cruisin' through the trees
G    D      A
Slippin' through the shadows
  G      D  A
Of what used to be


Outro:
A
Back in the day
        C    D
Livin' in the summer of love
F       G     A
Livin' in the summer of love
A
Grandma's ok
            C     D
But not the same since grandpa's gone
   F       G     A
She's livin' in the summer of love
A
Back in the day
        C    D
Livin' in the summer of love
F       G     A
Livin' in the summer of love
