TARGET Members will have any Charts, TAB, and Guitar Pro Files
Cinnamon Girl appeared on Neil Young’s second solo album, Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere. The arrangement featured heavily distorted guitars that now can probably be looked at as the roots of the grunge movement. Neil frequently performs an acoustic version of Cinnamon Girl with the guitar tuned to Double Dropped D (DADGBD). This makes for a lot of easy-to-play chords that are done with partial bars, sometimes across just the higher strings and sometimes just across the lower strings.

I love all of Neil Youngs drop D songs, but I wish you would do a lesson on Lee Shore by David Crosby.

Hi Neil I've been looking at this site for a few months. Been playing since around 65 with many long breaks. Your site has inspired me and boy has it come back with your help. I can only imagine what could have been if I had these learning tools in the 70's. I became a target member yesterday so keep those lessons coming. Would love to see a Massey Hall version of COWGIRL. MANY THANKS RB

Hey Neil, Just became a target member over the weekend. I am a fifty something player picking it up and putting it down since 69. I was looking for inspiration...I found it here. Here is another vote for Sugar Mountain. :)

Neil,
On the electric version, the first part sound lower. Is there a bass doing that part?
Also, regarding Ohio, what is the fingering for Fmaj7 in double drop D tuning? I tried the fingering that's used in standard tuning, but it didn't sound right. Thanks.

Super cool version of Cinnamon Girl--one of my favorite Neil songs. I can't wait until I'm ready to take this one on!
