Deep Forbidden Lake

Neil Young

Tom: D

                 D                                                                          A
    On the lake, the deep forbidden lake, the old boats go gliding by,
                   G                                                                              D
    and the leaves are falling from the trees and landing on the logs and I
                                                      D7                   G                Gm
    see the turtles heading for the bog and falling off the log.
                               D                                     A
    They make the water splash, and feeling no backlash,
                             D
    they climb the happy banks.

                  D                                                                                A
    On the boats, the old and creaky boats, the shoreline goes gliding by.
                   G                                                                       D
    And the wind, there was a dying breeze, is making the banners fly.
                                                                   D7                   G              Gm
    See the colors, floating in the sky, the pride of the captain's eye,
                D                                    A                                   D
    as he glides his slender craft inside and opens up the door.

                  D                                                                                A
    On the coast, the long and tempting coast, the cards on the table lie,
                   G                                                                   D
    and a speech, so eloquent in reach, was made by a passerby,
                                           D7                   G                Gm
    passing by the way between here and left behind.
                D                                                A
    And it ripples through the crowds who run and cast their doubts
                 D                              D D7 G Gm
    in the deep forbidden lake.
                D                                                  A
    Yes, it echoes through the crowds who run and cast their doubts
                 D
    in the deep forbidden lake.
