Neil Young - Lookin For A Love

artist : neil young & crazy horse
song : lookin’ for a love
album : zuma ( 1975 )

E
i’ve been looking for a lover
but i haven’t met her yet
she’ll be nothing like
B
i pictured her to be
E
in her eyes i will discover
A
another reason why
E
i want to live
B
and make the best
E
of what i see .

where the sun hits the water
and the mountains meet the sand
there’s a beach
that i walk along sometimes
and maybe there i’ll meet her
and we’ll start to say ’hello’
and never stop to think
of any other time .

E B
lookin’ for a love
A
that’s right for me
E B
i don’t know how long
A
it’s going to be
C#m
but i hope i treat her kind
B
and don’t mess with her mind
A
when she starts to see
E F#m
the darker side of me .

( solo over verse chords )

lookin’ for a love
that’s right for me
i don’t know how long
it’s going to be
but i hope i treat her kind
and don’t mess with her mind
when she starts to see
the darker side of me .

i’ve been looking for a lover
but i haven’t met her yet
she’ll be nothing like
i pictured her to be
in her eyes i will discover
another reason why
i want to live
and make the best
of what i see .
