Mr Soul Live Tab

   
     This is from the Unplugged show he did (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EMRqN0m5c-M). 
I was on a Neil Young binge and stumbled across this and he used similar chords 
and tuning to other songs I had been learning. I gave it a good shot. I'd suggest 
watching the video to get a good feel for the rhythm. If you have any suggestions just 
leave them in the comments :)

Tuning: Double Drop D

Just tune down both E strings to D, gives for some awesome heavy bass for acoustic.

Chords (I don't know the specific name for these chords and don't want to look them up)

The Riff: Not showing the strumming patterns for the chords, I highly suggest 
watching the video of him playing this.

Now throughout the song, he sometimes hammers-on the G-string 0h2 when playing 
the D chords

Another Section
   
     G        D                                          C    Em7      D

And he of course plays some badass harmonica throughout these sections.
