            E    A     E                                    
It's been a hard day's night,

              D              E
And I've been working like a dog.

            E    A     E                   
It's been a hard day's night,

I should be sleeping Like a log.

But when I get home to you,

           B                              
I find the things that you do.

Will make me feel, al-right.

You're gonna give me everything.

CODA:

You know I feel al - right,

           E    A     Dadd9 D Dadd9 D 
You know I feel al -  right.
Dadd9 D Dadd9 D (Repeat to Fade) [End] NOTES: 1. The opening chord is much disputed but given the current evidence it appears that Giles Martin has decoded it. http://www.guitarworld.com/beatles-multitracks-reveal-true-hard-days-night-chord-video; http://www.beatlesbible.com/features/hard-days-night-chord/ 2. In this version, I have capo’ed the track as there is growing evidence that the Dadd9 is described by the harmonics of the opening chord. “…Lennon’s dsus4 is correct. Harrison played a d9 on the 12 string with a capo on the third fret. Paul played a d on bass. …” http://www.beatlesbible.com/features/hard-days-night-chord/
