Neil Young - Downtown

      
 
 Downtown by Neil Young
 as performed by Neil Young and Pearl Jam on the CD "Mirrorball"
 
 Okay, I just got this CD yesterday and this song seemed very simple.
 It consists entirely(minus the lead fills) of this riff:
 
 E D A 
    

 E--------2---------------|
 B--------3--2--2-2-2-2---|
 G-----1--2--2--2-2-2-2---|
 D-----2-----2--2-2-2-2---|
 A-----2------------------|
 E--0--0------------------|
 

 
 That's it!
 
 
 To go along with the chords E D A as posted by another poster :),
 Add C B A for that chorus bit or whatever it's called.
 For improvising those solos and fills try the 2nd string 12 fret and
 2nd string 10 fret area. Also the 1st&2nd string 3rd and 5th fret area
 is a good spot to mess around during this song.
