'Silver And Gold' by Neil Young - Guitar Tutorial

SILVER AND GOLD- Neil Young 

G             D
Working hard every day
C
Never notice how the time slips away
G            D
People come, seasons go
C
We got something that will never grow old

CHORUS:
G         C          G          C                      
I don't care if the sun don't shine
          G           C             G       C 
And the rain keeps falling down on my and mine
     G           Am    Bm    Am           D  Dsus4  D
Cos our kind of love, never seems to get old
(N.C.)            G         C    G  C  G  C  D
It's better than silver and gold

I used to have a treasure chest
Got so heavy that I had to rest
I let it slip away from me
Didn't need it anyway, so I let it slip away

CHORUS TWICE

                  G          C   G  C
It's better than silver and gold
                  G          C   G  C
It's better than silver and gold
                  G          C   G  C  G
It's better than silver and gold

C            G
Working hard every day
F
Never notice how the time slips away
C            G
People come, seasons go
F
we got something that will never grow old

CHORUS:
C                      
I don't care if the sun don't shine
                                      F
and the rain keeps falling down on my and mine
C                                          G
Cause our kind of love, never seems to get old
                 C
It's better than silver and gold

I used to have a treasure chest
got so heavy that i had to rest
I let it slip away from me
didn't need it anyway, so I let it slip away

I play it this way:
(I also usually keep my guitar tuned down a step,
so it may be equivalent to what Steve has down,
I didn't really check before replacing the chords...)
