Neil Young chords for Long may you run (Ver. 3)

About Long May You Run

This song is about a car believe it or not! Neil´s beloved Pontiac hearse, "Mort", also known as "Mortimer Hearseburg", was the inspiration for this song. Neil drove "Mort" from Toronto to Los Angeles, where he met Stephen Stills and formed Buffalo Springfield.

Neil was in Canada driving to Sudbury when ´Mort´ broke down in Blind River, June 1965. (Which is contradictory to the lyrics; "well it was back in Blind River, in 1962, when I last saw you alive"). In 1976, Stephen Stills and Neil Young formed The Stills-Young Band and released an album called Long May You Run, which turned out to be somewhat ironic when the collaboration quickly stalled.
