If anyone can play Harvest Moon similar to AJ Lee on Youtube, https://youtu.be/ml22cp4ojHg I would love to see a video of it or any help at all to learn to play this. Thanks in advance

Thanks again

Thanks, wa8ars. That's a lovely, understated interpretation of "Harvest Moon." What a voice!
Robert Johnson's mother, describing blues musicians:
"I never did have no trouble with him until he got big enough to be round with bigger boys and off from home. Then he used to follow all these harp blowers, mandoleen (sic) and guitar players."
Lomax, Alan, The Land where The Blues Began, NY: Pantheon, 1993, p.14.
AJ and the Brothers Comatose do a really nice job of Neil Young's great song. But, with Emily's understated voice and Andrew's absolutely lovely mandolin playing, my favorite is still Watchhouse. But, I do like AJ's performance a lot--am listening to it even as we speak!

Agree, listening again to Orange/Watchhouse...that may be the version I need to figure out and learn. Love them both!
As an aside, I love what Andrew is playing the most but they play it in F which is only a friend to Emily's voice. AJ plays it in E.
If you are going to be singing it, the original is in D and very friendly to both male and female singers. Maybe it's time to start your journey of figuring out how to voice what you hear on a guitar. This one's not that hard. The notes go pretty slow and YouTube will let you slow it down even more.

Chordify has a playalong version of AJ and the Bros(Harvest Moon), if that appeals to you.

Ol' Neil has written some tender songs in his time. This is a real favourite.
Side topic - I got to see AJ Lee and Blue Sumit in Seattle recently. I never heard her before but my friend was playing with them so I went to see them - really great stuff and happy I went out!

Thank you that helps! I'll give this a try
Its on my bucket list, I've followed her on youtube for years Also want to see the brothers comatose live
Assume you mean Chordie? I found something under Neil Young but not AJ
I can't figure out exactly what AJ is playing up the neck there, but I found these simple chords worked for me in the E - F#m - F#m7 bits:
Emaj7 - 8-6-6-0 (D#-G#-d#-e) - you can move the first note up to 9th fret E if would rather have two Es than two D# (the maj 7th), depends how you want to emphasis the chord. To me the 9th fret E sounds better if you're playing solo but the 8th fret maj7th sounds better with guitar backing.
F#m7 - 6-4-4-0 (C# - F# - c# - e) - just the same shape moved down a couple of frets.
For the other chords, just whatever version of A and B/B7 sounds right.
You can see that AJ is mostly moving down to a 1st position E chord for solos and fills.
