Harvest Moon - Neil Young
Tabbed by Bill Brown ([email protected])
1993.11.07
I was lucky enough to have a video tape ready for taping when Neil
did this one on SNL (Nov 6/93 [rebroadcast]) The camera work was
great. The only chords I could not see for certain was the Em and
A for the chorus, but I'm pretty sure that's what they are.
Chords
Low E is tuned down to D.
B = beat
h = harmonic
v = strum down
^ = strum up
I don't know the proper name for some of these strange
chords, so I'll just tab the different parts.
Part 1 - intro
e -----------------------------09-09-09---09-09-09----|
B ------10---12-12-12-12-------10-10-10---10-10-10----|
G ------11---11-11-11-11-------11-11-11---11-11-11----|
D ------12---12-12-12-12------------------------------|
A ----------------------------------------------------|
D --0----------------------0--------------------------|
B B B B B B B B B
v v ^ v ^ v ^ v ^ ^ v ^
Part 2 - harmonics part
e------h12-----------------|
B----------h12-------------|
G--------------h12---------|
D----------------h12-------|
A------------------h07-----|
D--------------------------|
Last 3 play as triplet.
Part 3 - D A Em ? progression
e---------2-2-2-2-2--2-----------2---2-2-2-----|
B---------3-3-3-3-3--3---2-------2---2-2-2-----|
G---------2-2-2-2-2--2---2-------2---2-2-2-----|
D------------------------2---2---4-------------|
A----------------------------2---5-------------|
D----0-----------------------------------------|
B B B B B B B B B
v ^ v ^ v ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ v ^
e--------|-------|-------|
B--------|---2---|-------| Since the strumming pattern is
G--------|---2---|-------| the same for this area too, I
D---2----|---2---|-------| left it out.
A---2----|-------|---5---|
D---2----|-------|---5---|
Em A G (variation)
He drags his first few fingers back across the strings on the
up strum; so if you have nails, it sounds better.
Strumming pattern is the same for all the chords.
Part 1 - intro X 4
Part 2 - harmonics Come a little bit closer
Part 2 - harmonics Hear what I have to say
Part 3 - D A Em ? progression X 2
Part 2 - harmonics Just like children sleepin'
Part 2 - harmonics We could dream this night away
Part 3 - D A Em ? progression X 2
G
But there's a full moon risin'
G
Let's go dancing in the light
Part 1 - intro X 2
G
We know where the music's playin'
G intro (actually starts here)
Let's go out and feel the night
Part 1 - intro X 2
Em A
Because I'm still in love with you
Em
I want to see you dance again
A
Because I'm still in love with you
stop (and here)
On this harvest moon
When we were strangers
I watched you from afar
When we were lovers
I loved you with all my heart
But now it's gettin' late
And the moon is climbin' high
I want to celebrate
See it shinin' in your eye
Because I'm still in love with you
I want to see you dance again
Because I'm still in love with you
On this harvest moon
Bridge:
intro X 2
G
D A E ? prog. X 1

and finish up with slow strum of this chord:
