For some unknown reason I was never very motivated to learn
this classic Neil Young song until now (maybe because I heard it on the radio too much).
I decided to take a stab at it for this video. Wasn't too hard at all to
figure out the 3 main chords with the ocassional C chord in there.
Also, I resourced Hyperrust to get the correct tuning (dropped down
one step) and the right key harp (Bb).

Armed with that information I turned the camera on and did about
three takes in a row and picked the best one. Lyrics and harp parts
are done from memory and I think I actually switched some verses around:

I'm self taught. I started with songbooks but then learned I could play by ear. Now I access Chordie just to help me accelerate learning a song.
A great resource for sure.

A friend of mine saw my Cry Baby Cry Beatles cover and said
"Nobody who covers a John Lennon song could ever do the original
justice but brave try anyway".. Can't say I disagree with him but
never one to be discouraged by such remarks here's another
brave attempt!
