Neil Percival Kenneth Robert Ragland Young, conocido como Neil Young, cantante canadiense, nacido en Toronto el 12 de noviembre de 1945. Hijo de un periodista deportivo, tras el divorcio de sus padres vivió siempre con su madre, con la cual se mudó a la ciudad de Winnipeg de pequeño.  Aunque fue mal estudiante, sus primeros pasos musicales los dio en la universidad. Fundó su primer grupo, Neil Young &amp; The Squires, a mediados de los 60.

&quot;Like a Hurricane&quot; is a song written by Neil Young in 1975 and first released on the album American Stars 'N Bars in 1977.  The song was written in July 1975 with friend and La Honda neighbor Taylor Phelps in the back of his car, (a DeSoto Suburban), when Neil Young was unable to sing due to an operation on his vocal cords. Driven by Young's trademark fierce guitars, the song has been played on nearly every tour Neil Young has done since.

Am] [G] [F] [Em]

[Am]Once I thought I saw you in a [G]crowded, hazy bar,
[F]Dancing on the light from star to [Em]star. [G]
[Am]Far across the moon beams, I [G]know that's who you are.
I [F]saw your brown eyes turning once to [Em]fire. [G]

CHORUS
[C]You [G]are [F]like a [G]hurricane: 
[C]there's [G]calm [F]in your [G]eye.
[C]And [G]I'm [F]getting [G]blown away. 
[F]There's somewhere safer where the feelings stay.
I wanna love you but I'm getting blown a[Am]way. 
[G] [F] [Em] [G]


I am just a dreamer, but you are just a dream,
And you could have been anyone to me.
Before that moment you touched my lips, that 
Perfect feeling when time just slips 
Away between us and our foggy trips.

CHORUS

Like A Hurricane

G              C
Oh, to live on Sugar Mountain
                                                                           G      	             C		
With the barkers and the colored balloons,
G                   C		
You can't be twenty on Sugar Mountain
D
Though you're thinking that
                     G
You're leaving there too soon,
D                    G  
You're leaving there too soon.
                                                                                                          C						
It's so noisy at the fair
                         G
But all your friends are there
                    C
And the candy floss you had
                         G
And your mother and your dad 
                                                                                     Repeat

Oh, to live on Sugar Mountain
With the barkers and the colored balloons,
You can't be twenty on Sugar Mountain
Though you're thinking that
You're leaving there too soon,
You're leaving there too soon.


There's a girl just down the aisle,
Oh, to turn and see her smile.
You can hear the words she wrote
As you read the hidden note.

Oh, to live on Sugar Mountain
With the barkers and the colored balloons,
You can't be twenty on Sugar Mountain
Though you're thinking that
You're leaving there too soon,
You're leaving there too soon.

Now you're underneath the stairs
And you're givin' back some glares
To the people who you met
And it's your first cigarette.

Oh, to live on Sugar Mountain
With the barkers and the colored balloons,
You can't be twenty on Sugar Mountain
Though you're thinking that
You're leaving there too soon,
You're leaving there too soon.

Now you say you're leavin' home
'Cause you want to be alone.
Ain't it funny how you feel
When you're findin' out it's real?

Oh, to live on Sugar Mountain
With the barkers and the colored balloons,
You can't be twenty on Sugar Mountain
Though you're thinking that
You're leaving there too soon,
You're leaving there too soon.

Oh, to live on Sugar Mountain
With the barkers and the colored balloons,
You can't be twenty on Sugar Mountain
Though you're thinking that
You're leaving there too soon,
You're leaving there too soon.

G
Ain't it hard
            A
when you wake up
            D
in the morning
          G
And you find out
            A
that those other days
     D
are gone?
G
All you have
    A            D
is memories of happiness
E            A  G  F#m  E
Lingerin' on.

All your dreams
and your lovers
won't protect you,
They're only passing
through you in the end.
They'll leave
you stripped of all
that they can get to,
And wait for you
to come back again.

Yet still a light is shining
From that lamp on down the hall.
Maybe the star of Bethlehem
Wasn't a star at all.

 White cane lying in the gutter in the lane 
 And you're walking home alone

Happiness I know will always find you

And when it does, I hope that it will stay

Here For You

 C                                F         
In the morning when I wake up and listen to the sound
 C                          F   
Of the birds outside on the roof
  C                      F
I try to ignore what the paper says
  C                      F
And I try not to read all the news
  C                          F
And I'll hold you if you had a bad dream
  C                      F
And I hope it never comes true
  C                                  F
'Cause you and I been through so many things together
  C                            F
And the sun starts climbing the roof

F    C
It's a dream
C    G
Only a dream
G        F            G
And it's fading now
G          C
Fading away
C          G
It's only a dream
      F                      G        C
Just a memory without anywhere to stay

It's A Dream

I love you, baby, can I have some more

Ooh, ooh, the damage done.

I hit the city and I lost my band

 F G     Em7   F         G              F         C     
 O h  Alabama; the devil fools with the best laid plans.

 F     G   Em7    
 Swing low Alabama

 F                     D                      
 You got spare change, you got to feel strange

 Oh Alabama, Banjos playing through the broken glass
 Windows down in Alabama.
 See the old folks tied in white ropes
 Hear the banjo; don't it take you down home?

 Chorus
                                               
 Oh Alabama; can I see you and shake your hand.
 Make friends down in Alabama.
 I'm from a new land
 I come to you and see all this ruin 
 What are you doin'?

Harvest 

C
They were hiding behind hay bales,
          F               C 
They were planting in the Full Moon,
               C/B      Am7               F   G
They had given all they had for something new,
        C  
But the light of day was on them,
           F                C
They could see the thrasher coming,
        C     C/B        Am7             F    G   
And the water shone like diamonds in the dew.

F              G
And I was just getting up,
   C                       F 
To hit the road before its light,
                   G           C    Cmaj7 Cmaj7 C 
trying to catch an hour on the sun,
F                        G 
When I saw those thrashers rolling by,
        C          C/B       Am7    Am/C
Looking more than  two lanes wide,
      Dm7                          G
I was feeling like my day had just begun.

          C 
Where the eagles glide descending,
           F             C 
There's an ancient river bending,
         C        C/B      Am7     Am7/G  F             G
Down the timeless gorge of changes where sleeplessness awaits,
  C
I searched out my companions,
         F               C
who were lost in crystal canyons,
         C       C/B      Am7     Am7/G       F            G  
When the aimless blade of science slashed the pearly gates,

F                      G                     C               F 
It was then I knew I'd had enough, burned my credit card for fuel,
F                       G                 C    Cmaj7 C
Headed out to where the pavement turns to sand,
       F                     G                    C        C/B   Am7   Am7/G 
With a one-way ticket to the land of truth and my suitcase in my hand.
      Dm7                                   G
How I lost my friends I still dont understand.

C
They had the best selection,
          F                C
They were poisoned with protection,
          C       C/B       Am7     Am7/G
There was nothing that they needed, 
F               G 
nothing left to find.
          C
They were lost in rock formations,
   F                    C 
Or became park bench mutations,
           C         C/B        Am7      Am7/G           F        G
On the the sidewalks and in the stations,      they were waiting, waiting.
F                  G
So I got bored and left them there,
          C                   F
They were just dead weight to me,
F               G                 C    Cmaj7 Cmaj7 C  
Better down the road without that load,
F                           G
Bring's back the time I was eight or nine,
      C                  Am7   Am7/G 
I was watching my Mama's TV,
            Dm7                             G    
It was that great Grand Canyon rescue episode.
         C
With the vulture glides descending,
      F               C  
On an asphalt highway bending,
        C         C/B     Am7 Am7/G  F            G 
Through libraries and museums,       galaxies and stars.

         C
Down the windy halls of friendship,
       F                   C 
To the rose clipped by the bullwhip,
    C        C/B   Am7       Am7/G      F               G  
The motel of lost companions waits with heated pool and bar.
F               G
But me, I'm not stopping there,
        C              F 
Got my own row left to hoe,
F            G                    C    Cmaj7
Just another line in the field of time.

F                               G 
When the thrashers come I'll be stuck in the sun,
         C            Am7      Am7/G 
Like the dinosaurs in shrines,
         Dm7                                   G
But I'll know the time has come to give what's mine.

Em                  G     C                 Am	  G
I never believed in much, but I believed in you.

Chorus

F                              C                   G 
Can we get it together, can we still stand side by side.

F                    C              G
Can we make it last, like a musical ride?


Verse2:
From Marilyn to Madonna, I always loved  your smile,
Now we're headed for the big divorce, California style.
I found myself singin'  like a long lost friend
The same thing that makes you live can kill you in the end.

repeat chorus:

Verse 3
Sometimes its distorted not clear to you.
Sometimes the beauty of love just comes ringin' through.
New glass in the window, new leaf on the tree,
new distance between us you and me

From Hank To Hendrix

G
She used to work in a diner, never saw a woman look finer
                                                  C
I used to order just to see her float across the floor.
                   G
She grew up in a small town, never put her roots down.
                             C
Daddy kept movin so she did too.

    Chorus:
                          G                   C       G
Somewhere on a desert highway, she rides a harley davidson
                                       C
Her long blonde hair  flyin' in the wind.
                               G
She's been runnin half of her life.
                  C       G
The chrome and steel she rides,
                                    C                       G
collidin' with the very air she breathes, the air she breathes.

     Repeat Intro Riff

You know it's ain't easy, you got to hold on.
She was an unknown legend in her time.
Now whe's dressin' two kids, lookin' for that magic kiss.
She gets that far away look in her eyes.

    Repeat Chorus

Unknown Legend

D       A         G            D 
Did I see you down in a young girl's town
	  D                 A      A/E
With your mother in so much pain?
      G      A            Bm         E
I was almost there at the top of the stairs
	 D
With her screamin' in the rain.

	D        A     G        D
Did she wake you up to tell you that 
       D                A       A/E 
It was only a change of plan?
      G         A          Bm        E
Dream up, dream up, let me fill your cup
	 D
With the promise of a man. 

      D       A       G        D
Did I see you walking with the boys 
	  D                A       A/E
Though it was not hand in hand?
	G          A         Bm     E
And was some black face in a lonely place
     D
When you could understand?

	D        A     G        D
Did she wake you up to tell you that
       D                A       A/E
It was only a change of plan? 
      G         A          Bm        E    
Dream up, dream up, let me fill your cup 
     D
With the promise of a man.


Will I see you give more than I can take?  
Will I only harvest some?                  
As the days fly past will we lose our grasp
Or fuse it in the sun?

	D        A     G        D
Did she wake you up to tell you that
       D                A       A/E 
It was only a change of plan? 
      G         A          Bm        E
Dream up, dream up, let me fill your cup
	 D
With the promise of a man.
      G         A          Bm        E
Dream up, dream up, let me fill your cup
	 D
With the promise of a man.

Verse 1:

G       F                  D
All the sailors with their seasick mamas

For The Turnstiles

C                        F 
Back in the old folky days
Am            Em              D
The air was magic when we played
C                                   F
The river boat was rocking in the rain
Am                Em            D
Midnight was the time for the raid
G
Oh Isabella, Proud Isabella
Am
They tore you down and plowed you under
Bm                             C
You're only real with your makeup on
G                 D
How could I see you and stay too long

C                        F
All along the Navaho Trail
Am                  Em                 D
burnouts stub their toes on garbage pails
C                          F
Waitresses crying in the rain
Am                   Em                 D
Will their boyfriends pass this way again?
G 
Oh Mother Goose, she's on the skids
Am
the shoe* ain't happy neither are the kids  
Bm                        C
She needs someone that she can scream at
G                    D
And I'm such at heel for making her so bad

C                                F
I guess I'll call it sickness gone
Am                   Em                D
It's hard to say the meaning to this song
C                              F
An ambulance can only go so fast
Am               Em               D
It's easy to get buried in the past
C                                  F
When you try to make a good thing last
Am   Em   D

G
I saw today, in the entertainment section
Am
There's room at the top for private detection
Bm             C
To Mom and Dad this just doesn't matter
G                    D
But it's either that or pay off the kidnappers
C                          F
So all you critics sit alone
Am                    Em                        D
You're no better than me for what  you've shown
C                                               F
With your stomach pump and your hook and ladder dreams
Am                 Em               D
We could get together for some scenes

G
Well I'm up in T.O.  keepin' jive alive
Am
and out on the corner it's half past five
Bm                        C
But the subways are empty and so are the cafes
G                              D
Except for the Farmer's Market and I can still hear him sayin'
C                                  F
"You're all just pissin' in the wind
Am             Em             D
You don't know it but you are"
C                              F
And there ain't nothing like a friend
Am                           Em              D
Who can tell you you're just pissin' in the wind

G
I never knew a man could tell so many lies
Am
he had a different story for every set of eyes
Bm                  C
How can he remember who he's talking to?
G                        D                        G(hold)
Cause I know it ain't me and I hope it isn't you

Adagio Paradiso

Verse 1:
           B
I'm going back to the time when we owned this town
      E
Down Powder Mill Lane, in the battlegrounds
C#m        B                   G#m  B     F#
We were friends and lovers and clueless clowns


Verse 2:
                      B       
I didn't know I'd be finding out now I was torn from you
         E
When we thought about things we were gonna do
C#m      B                    G#m B  F# 
We were wide eyed dreamers and wiser too


Chorus:
               E              B 
Go down to the rides on East Parade,
        G#m                   F#
by the lights of the Palace Arcade
                    E                     G#m   F#   
Watch night coming down on the Sovereign Light Café


Verse 3:
                          B
I'm begging you for some sign, but you've still got nothing to say
        E
Don't turn your back on me, don't walk away
C#m     B                   G#m  B   F#
I'm a better man now than I was that day


Chorus:
                      E              B 
Let's go down to the rides on East Parade,
        G#m                   F#
by the lights of the Palace Arcade
                    E                     G#m   F#   
Watch night coming down on the Sovereign Light Café

                 E               B
Go down to the bandstand on the pier
           G#m                    F#
Watch the drunks and the lovers appear
                      E                     G#m   F#     
Take time, just the stars at the Sovereign Light Café


Bridge:
   E        B           F#
I wheel my bike off the train,
        F#
Up the North Trade Road,
 E        B             F# 
Look for you on Marley Lane
                          G#m
In every building, every streetlight
                   E               F#  G#m  B  F#
Oh why did we ever go so far from home?


Verse 4:
                        B
You keep on leaving me mile long traces of who you are
         E
You can get a big house and a faster car
C#m      B                    G#m   B  F#
You can run away boy, but you won't go far


Chorus:
                      E              B
Let's go down to the rides on East Parade,
        G#m                   F#
by the lights of the Palace Arcade
                    E                     G#m   F#   
Watch night coming down on the Sovereign Light Café

                    E                B
Stroll down to the bandstand on the pier
           G#m                    F#
Watch the drunks and the lovers appear
                     E                      G#m   F#
Take time, just the stars at the Sovereign Light Café 

      E            B    G#m
La la la la la la la la Yeah, 
     F#                      E       B   F#

American Dream 

G Bm Em A
Well everybody's lookin' for something they can't find,
Walking straight ahead blind-folded production line,
Only taking time for one type of shoe-shine.
Don't look left/right now you got a street fine.
Everybody lookin' for just a little more.
Working late-nights trying to fight off the day glow.
Waiting for the come-around but it is a no show.
Driving in the fast lane lookin' for the slow-mo...

C D A
Oh whats in store I don't know anymore.
Oh what's inside 'cos I can't hide from it no more.
Oh what you see well it's not me anymore.
Oh I don't know well I don't know man anymore because 

G Bm Em A
I tell you once I tell you twice, gonna be a long time
But you don't take no one's advice, gonna be a long time you,
Where were you, you weren't listenin', gonna be a long time
Gonna be a long time.

G Bm Em A
So now you're face down, face lookin like a frying pan.
Hitting up the clubs trying to feel like a real man.
Beating your chest just like you're King Kong but you're just a gui-tar no-string no-song.
Feeling free like ya don't even know it, man you're towing the line hoping you just don't blow it.
Man ya stuck in the mainframe trying to win the big game so much potential it even makes it more of a shame, shame, shame...
Here we go again, same old shit just another name.
Looking at the destiny there in your palm,
But now you got your strings but you got no song.
So sing, sing, sing - shake it like a chicken wing.
It's not what you get it's about what you bring-bring-bring.
So bring it, bring it to the table, not because you have to 'cos you're willing and you're able!

when you think there's no reason to try
               D                           A
and you hate yourself and wanna die

A                                      E
when you're filled with anxiety
             D                   A
and everyone's your enemy

A                                         E
when you write yourself a stupid song

to remind yourself that you forgot

repeats.
