See the Girl Dance : Neil Young : Unsung Hero & 1971 BBC concert
This is not in the recorded key - i suspect Neil's guitar
could be tuned down to D, same shapes. On the other hand,
it's a very bad bootleg recording :-)
Strumming:
up-stroke /
down \
Av = xx5433
A6 = xx5435
As4 = 002230
A9hA = hammer on from 002200 to 002220
E/ means hit the tonic bass note hard!
You can figure out the bass notes to hit in the verses easy enough.
In the intro, give a quick up and down strum on an ordinary A,
before jumping down to A at fifth.
Intro: play x2
A Av Av A6 Av D D/ A A A9hA As4 A E E/ A

See the girl dance
Mississippi mud never touched her fingers
California sand lies in her hand
Love her more than life as the daylight lingers
Early in the morning I'll be her man
Dance, dance feel it all around you
Dance, dance, dance
Mississippi mud never touched her fingers
See the girl dance
See the girl dance
enjoy!
