Neil Percival Young (born November 12, 1945) is a Canadian singer-songwriter, guitarist, and social activist who is widely regarded as one of the most influential musicians of his generation, particularly as Neil Young & Crazy Horse. Young was born in Toronto, but he moved to the family home of Winnipeg as a child, which is where his music career began. Young began performing as a solo artist in Canada in 1960, before moving to California in 1966, where he co-founded the band Buffalo Springfield along with Stephen Stills and Richie Furay.

FM7 is x00560, and you repeatedly hammer-on the third (G) string (0h5) The mention of Dsus4 is to indicate that you should fiddle around with the high E string, between D, Dsus4 and D9.
(DWB: I made the corrections he notes in the next paragraph, and fixed up the ending)
Just looking at the file right now, i wonder if the line: D F C G D F C G (or D F C G x2 ) is correct - strikes me it should end in F. hmmm
If you make any additions or corrections - let me know of them! cheers! [email protected]
