Chords
Released: 10 July 2012
Album: CSN 2012
Note: Although CS&N don’t play this in standard tuning I made this
in standard tuning as most of us playing guitar use this.
Also no picking as most of us just want to play along to this beautiful song!
It has taken me some time to get this right so enjoy!
For lack of space and easier reading I put abreviated chord names down.
Please refer to finger setting given below.

Dm Am Driving out through the windmills, F Gadd11 G Gadd11 G And some of them were still, Dm Am7 Sometimes it's hard to catch the wind, C Gadd11 G Gadd9 G Dm Dm And bend it to your will.
[Verse 2]
Dm G/B Am Even though it's hard to know, F Gadd11 G Gadd11 G Just how the story ends, Dsus2 G/B Am The road is long and it takes its time, C Gadd11 G Gadd9 G On that you can depend.
[Pre-Chorus]
D7 D6 Dsus4 Dm7 Lay me down in the ri-----ver, C G F Bb And wash this place away, D7 D6 Dsus4 Dm7 Break me down like sand from a stone, C G F Bb C Dm Maybe I'll be whole again one day.
[Chorus]
Gadd11 G Bb C Dm Lay me down, lay me down, F G Bb Dm Maybe I'll be whole again, Gadd11 G Bb C Dm Lay me down, lay me down, F G Bb Dm Dm Maybe I'll be whole again.
[Verse 3]
Dm F G/B Am Somewhere between heaven and hell, F Gadd11 G Gadd11 G A soul knows where it's been, D/F# Am I want to feel my spirit lifted up, C Gadd11 G Gadd9 G And catch my breath again.
[Pre-Chorus]
D7 D6 Dsus4 Dm7 Lay me down in the ri-----ver, C G F Bb And wash this place away, D7 D6 Dsus4 Dm7 Break me down like sand from a stone, C G F Bb C Dm Maybe I'll be whole again one day.
[Chorus]
Gadd11 G Bb C Dm Lay me down, lay me down, F G Bb Dm Maybe I'll be whole again, Gadd11 G Bb C Dm Lay me down, lay me down, F G Bb Dm Dm Maybe I'll be whole again. Gadd11 G Bb C Dm Lay me down, lay me down, F G Bb C Dm Dm Dm Maybe I'll be whole again one day . . .
