Neil Young – You And Me chords

Tuning is drop D:  DADGBE

I use triads for all but the C chords that end a line.

Major triads shapes used:

"D" shape       "A" shape           "E" shape

e--2--  3rd      e--5--  5th       e--10--|  Rootb--3--  Root     b--7--  3rd       b--10--|  5thg--2--  5th      g--7--  Root      g--11--|  3rdd-----           d-----            d------|a-----           a-----            a------|E-----           E-----            E------|

Minor triad shape(s) used:

"A" shape

e-----b--7--  3rdg--7--  Rootd--7--  5tha-----E-----

Intro:
Starts using an E-shape at the 8th fret sliding up to 10th (C to D) then slide back to
8th fret (D to C).  This is followed A-shaped C at the 3rd fret sliding up to 5 (C to D)
then back to 3rd fret.  Then an E-shaped G at the third fret followed by A-Shaped C at 3 
and ending on a D chord which brings you to the start of the lyrics.  I do play the top
three strings open for one
beat just before the D chord at the end of the intro.

So in short: C->D, D->C, C->D, D->C, G, C, (open strum G,B,E strings), D.
