Chords

--------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Written by: George Harrison Tabbed by: maguri McCartney plays this arrangement regularly in concert. He uses a ukulele tuned down a whole step (f-Bb-D-G) until the solo, so this first part of the song sounds in Bb. The link from Bridge to Solo leads to the key change and from the solo on, the song is in the key of C. McCartney switches to acoustic guitar in standard tuning for the rest of the song, so he plays C shapes throughout; the key change is due only to the tuned down ukulele in the first part. This chord sheet is for a ukulele in standard C-Tuning (g-C-E-A) but still reproduces the key change. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Special voicings
