[Dm] _ _ _ _ _ [F] _ _ _
_ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _ _ [Gm] _
_ _ _ _ [Dm] _ _ _ _
_ _ [Gm] _ _ _ _ [Dm] _ _
_ _ _ [Bb] _ _ [Gm] _ _ _
[D] _ _ _ _ [Bm] Hey, how are you guys?
I'm about to do a lesson for Southern Man from Neil Young's
_ _ _ After the Gold Rush.
Oh my god, spaced it there for a second.
After the Gold Rush came out in _
1970 and
So I just wanted to go over the chords in this.
This song is about
Five and a half minutes long and there's a long [D] solo in it and everything like that, but I just wanted to
_ _ [Dm] Give you some chords to get you started so [Bm] you could play it on the acoustic
_ in the very beginning
_ [B] _ _ [D] _ _ [Dm] _ _
_ You could [Em] play you could either play [A] the D minor in the [D] first position
_ _ _ _ And you're gonna lift [G] your first finger [Dm] off of the high E string
_ And your first finger, you know on to the first
_ _ [D] _ D minor
_ _ _ go from that [Gm] to
B flat to
G minor you want to play this G minor, you know this way
[B] with your [Gm] thumb
R'ing that low note [Gm] and then
_ [G] You add your pinky to the fifth of the high E
[Dm] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Bb] _ _ [Gm] _ _ _ [Dm] _ _ _
_ _ _ [Gm] _ _ _ _
[Bm] So there's does that a couple times and then when it goes into the verse bring up the lyrics here
_ _ _ See [A] start with a D minor
[D] _ _ _ _ _ [F] _
_ _ _ _ [Bb] B flat
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Gm] G minor does [Dm] it again? _ _ _ _
[A] _ [F] _ _ _ _ _ [Bb] _ _
_ _ _ [Gm] _ _ _ _
[D] So you're going from D minor [F] to F
_ [Bb]
B flat
_ [Em] G [Gm] minor _ [C] and then when you're getting to the [Dm] chorus be _ _ _
[Bb] _ _ [Gm] _ [A] the same as in the beginning
D [Dm] minor _ _ _ [Bb] flat [Gm] G minor with the [A] hammer on _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Eb] _ _ [A] Let me see I'm just _
The [E] chords are the same, but it's just a little bit of a different tempo.
Let me see that let me go into the second verse
[D] _ _ _ _ [Bb] _ _
_ [Gm] _ _ [Dm] _ _ _ _ _
[Bb] _ _ [Gm] _ _ _ _ [Dm] _ _
_ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ And
the [C] last line in second verse when he's getting [A] to _
I heard sweet
_ Oh _
_ _ _ It _ _ _
_ _ _ [Dm] _ _ _ _ _
[Bb] _ _ [Gm] _ _ [A] _ _ just goes back into [Dm] the
_ _ [Bb] B flat [Gm] to G minor
_ _ _ [Bm] _
So I think that
_ For the most part.
I think he's playing the D [D] minor in the first position
_ You could play it, you know like this _
[Bm] like for the beginning
[D] _ _ _ _ _
[Bb] _ _ [Gm] _ _ _ [C] You know like play that in [Dm] this position here [D] and lift up
_ Or just lift your second finger _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [Gm] _ _ _ _ [B]
But it's basically [D] it's just D [Bbm] minor to B [Gm] flat _
_ [Eb] And then the chorus it [A] or
Sorry, that was the chorus
[Gm] _ So for the for the main [A] verses just gonna go from [F] D minor
_ _ [Bb] _ _
[Gm] _ Flat G minor
[Dm] _ _ [F] _ _
_ [Bb] _ _ [Gm] _ _ _ _ [B] _
Okay, and
_ Those are you know most of the chords in the song.
I just wanted to give you that [D] to
_ _ [Gb] Get you started.
I know there's a long solo in there
_ _ But I just wanted to show you you know a way to play it on the acoustic and
I know that there's you know [Bm] a couple of lessons out there already
But I saw I watched a one you know [Dm] one guy's lesson and the way he was showing
How to play [B] it was just with bar chords like you move from the D [Dm] minor _ _
_ [Bb] to
_ _ [G] G minor like just using bar chords [Gm] and to me.
I [D] don't know it just sounds a little more _ _
[Dm] _ _ _ _ _ [Bb] Little more
[Gm] Trebly, and I think he's just playing it [Dm] in the first position _
_ _ _ [Bb] _ You could also play the E flat like this your first finger
At the first of the high E and your second ring finger and pinky or at the third of the D G B string
_ go to [Gm] the [Dm] G minor _
_ _ _ [Bb] _ _ [Gm] _ _ _
_ [E] _ _ [B] _ _ All right, but you know [Db] that should
_ [D] _ [B] get you started like I said and
_ Hopefully it will help you you know learn the song a little bit
_ _ _ All right, I'll talk to you all soon.
Have a good
