Chords for How to Play "Ohio" by Neil Young on Acoustic Guitar

_ _ Hello, and sorry it's been a few years since I posted a video
_ I want to put up for you a good song that I love Neil Young who's one of my favorites the song is, Ohio
_ It's the acoustic version that I like from Massey Hall
1971 _ _
So it's a very easy song with only three chord shapes
But a few things technically that make it sound a lot like the original recording.
It's very cool
_ Starting with the tuning you probably mostly know what a drop D tuning is
But he goes a half step lower approximately in this recording, so it's actually going to be a C sharp on either end of the guitar and
_ [C#] _ _ _ You can tune accordingly [F] so it ends up being C sharp for that good low sound it sounds okay in a regular drop D
It's more convenient, but for making it sound like the Massey Hall.
[Am] I'm gonna go ahead all the way [G#] down, so it's C sharp [C#] G sharp
_ [D#m] C sharp F sharp [C#] A sharp
C sharp [F] so that's the tuning _ strumming
_ _ like a lot of Neil it's very
_ _ [G] Percussive a lot of palm muting so I like to really think of [D] this come up _
_ [D#] _ _ _ _ _ [C] So sort [C#] of
_ _ _ [F#] _ _ _
_ [C#] _ _ _ _ _ [B] _ _
_ [C#] _ _ _ [F#] _ _ _ _
[C#] _ _ _ _ [E] _ _ _ _
_ [F] _ _ _ _ _ [C] _
The chords are [C#] very simple D _
Without the bottom finger to let that other _
We're calling [G#] it a D.
We're in C sharp, but for simplicity a D without the bottom held [B] down
_ _ [E] _
F without the bottom held down [B] and C _
_ The only [G#] other chord form is we're going to come up two frets
And we're gonna fret the sixth and [C#] fifth strings
And then we're gonna bar the first two strings everything else is open underneath or you can mute this
D string which is the same note as this so you can leave it ring underneath, [F#] or you can let the pinky come down
_ _ _ _ That's a g7
[G#] Now the only thing else that will do differently those are the only four chords
But we'll slide up to the [F#] 10th _ and [E] still we won't fret the g7 this time.
It's the same chord shape without barred _ _
But we we put our index on [C#] the B string and we mute
_ The _ _ [B] D string this is just another C.
[F#] No C chord
_ _ _ _ _ [C#] D _
_ _ _ _ _ That's the other D
_ _ _ _ _ [F#] _ _ _
[C#m] _ _ _ [G#] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [B] _ _ _ [G#] so the essence is
_ [C#] These get is picking out the correct notes when you're when you're playing these strings, so he always starts
_ Hard down on that E. _
[B] _ I'm gonna pull out the treble notes that are important that give it the essence [F#] so it's
_ _ [C#m] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [B] _ _
[C#m] _ _ _ _ _ [G#] _ _ _
_ [C#m] _ _ _ _ [G#] _ _ _
[C#] Sorry
_ _ _ [E] _ [F#] _ _
_ [C#] _ _ [F#] _ _ [C#m] _ _ _
_ [B] _ _ _ [G#] _ _ So you're really gonna play those treble notes coming through _
_ [G#m] with the more standard
[C#] _ _ _
_ [B] _ _ _ [C#] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [B] _ _ [C#] _ _ _
_ _ [B] _ _ [G#] _ _ _ [C#] _
_ [E] _ _ [G#] _ _ [C#] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [B] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [F#] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [B] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [C#] _ _ _
_ _ [F#] _ _ _ _ [B] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [F#] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [C#] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [F#] _ _ [C#] _ _ _
_ [G#] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
There you have it
