Red Sun by Neil Young

Submitted by Martijn Soenen (martijnsoenen@hotmail.com)

I observed the Austin Texas video of Neil in 1999 good and after me there is a little riff
(actually the intro) that makes this song very beautiful. During the song it sounds very good
if you repeat the hammer-ons like the intro. Certainly during the chorus. eg. after the
"When the one who's coming arrives here at last" part.


TUNING: Dropped standard (DGCFAD). Sounds good with normal tuning as well.

CHORDS:
  C (x32010@1)  x32010
  G (320003@1)  320003
  D (xx0232@1)  xx0232
  D/F# 200232
  Am7  x02010
  Em   022000
