Subject: CRD:  Cocaine Eyes - Neil Young

From the semi-rare Eldorado.  What a killer tune!!!!



OK, here's Cocaine Eyes, from Eldorado.
Thands to Shakey

Chords used:    Em:022000       E: 022100
                A: x02220       B: x2444x

Intro: Em, A

Em                          A                             Em     A
 Ain't a day goes by I don't burn a little bit of my soul
 Em                          A                             Em     A
 Ain't a day goes by I don't burn a little bit of my soul
 G                    A             G                 A
 Scored some friends along the way, did what I did, said what I had to say
        G                    A
 And I'd do it all again if I had to today
     C               D                      Em    A     Em     A
 When all is said and done, I'm the one

E       B    C#                  A
 Cocaine eyes won't hide your face
 E          B      C#               A    B                  Em   A   Em   A
 It's no surprise, you'll lose the race again, my old friend

It's a long hard road when your friends start to leave you behind
 It's a long hard road when you're tryin' to find peace of mind
 Some might go for poison, some go for too much stuff
 Some just go to sleep at night and forget to wake up

Have fun!

Shakey
 PS- for the acoustic version, Neil plays the Em, A intro and before
returning to the Em chords, he plays these frets on the A string:

      Em, A     0 2 3 3 2 0   Em, A   0 2 3 3 2 0  Em  etc...

When all is said and done, I'm the one

It's a long hard road when you're tryin' to find peace of mind

Some just go to sleep at night and forget to wake up

NOTE: What I mean by the above riff explanation is this:  The first part
is strummed (trying to imitate up and down strums) then the 2 4 5... are
individual notes played on the D string.  This is from the solo acoustic,
still unreleased version.
