That girl from long ago

She wanted California
A E B

C#m

What's left of it all went with her
Packed up in broken dreams
I'll tell ya friend I loved her then
And I always will it seems

Chorus:
That evening breeze reminds me
So soft against my ear
Before she was behind me
I ain't been myself in years

A E
Sometimes I hear her laughing
A E
Sometimes I see her face
A E
Sometimes I think she's coming back
E B
To fix this broken place

So easy to see right through me
Too late to change my ways
I'll tell ya friend I loved her when
I wasn't in this haze

[ Chorus ]

I ain't been myself in years

If anyone could post chords for How Bout You that would be awesome. I'm a little suprised its not already up. I'd also really like to know how to play Wind's On Fire

I put this together by watching them play this in video on youtube - that's where I saw the capo and everything just feel into place.

New Deal Train
Ben(?)

G C D
Got on the new deal train
G C D
Supposed to take us to a world where there wasn't any pain
G C Am D
There was room for more on board but the door's closed
C
The people on the platform

There's just one train running on these tracks
And once it's gone brother it aint' comin back
But it's first classs all the way
Of course you ain't complaining about that
Because you got on the train

(chorus)

G C D
To take it to the promised land

G C D
Promised to us but not to them
G C Am
Be happy that your name was found
D C D
On the list they carry around

So I asked him how I got on board
Said it's a favor to your granddad
Made us a killing in the last war
Stand over by the door,
Think about how lucky you are (you're lucky son)
Because you got on the train

chorus

Now i'm sitting in a burned out basement
Listening to neil young
And mother nature on the run
Surely counted on people always wanting more
Just to set them apart from the folks next door
Still they got on the train

chorus

Got on the new deal train
Supposed to take us to a world where there wasn't any pain
G C Am
Said everybody could come along, well
D C G
it turns out they were wrong
