Heart of Gold - Neil Young

I don't know who originally wrote this,  I just added the riff after "old."  
I got this from the book "Neil Youn for Guitar" or something like that.  


The intro is an Em strum with a brief D:  (each / represents a beat)
(This may actually be a Em7)

Repeat twice:
          Em (022000@1)Em (022000@1)Em (022000@1)Em (022000@1)Em (022000@1)Em (022000@1)D (xx0232@1)     D (xx0232@1) Em (022000@1) /   /   /   /   /   /   /   /   /   /   /   /   /   /   /   /
