Oh, Lonesome Me

After the Gold Rush

I found a rendition of �Oh, Lonesome Me� by Neil Young on YouTube. I capoed up
four and tried playing along for a while. This is what came out.

Neil seems to like to pull-off/hammer-on notes in his chords (e.g., in this piece

the E (middle finger) in his open C chords, the A (again, middle finger) in his
open F chords). Those oh-so-Neil-like embellishments are not reflected here.

Standard tuning
Capo on 4

Intro: C F C F

There must be some way that I can lose these lonesome blues

I can't get over how she set me free.

Oh, Oh, lonesome me.
