--------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Written by: George Harrison From: "All Things Must Pass" (1970) Tabbed by: maguri Tuning: Standard / Drop-D
I put in some notes from the harmonies into the B7 chord, making it a 
B7-9 here and there. I think it gives a certain Harrison-flavour to that 
part. If that’s too much for your taste, just leave it out and play B7.
Playing with a capo on the 2nd fret makes for easy shapes. If you want more bottom end, use a Drop-D tuning. I added the voicings below. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Capo: 2nd fret Pplay: Em Key: F#m For chords in original key, transpose +2 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
