Chords for ♪♫ The Beatles - Back In The USSR (Tutorial)

_ _ Hi guys, I've had a lot of people asking for a [G] tutorial for back in the USSR since I covered it recently _
So here it [A] is this one
[F#] This is an acoustic version obviously [E] if you were gonna _ _ _
[A] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ [D] _
_ _ But this is the way [E] I do it, of course it's not the way the Beatles do [E] it
_ Anyway intro starts on an E
_ Okay, and you're gradually gonna bring an e7 into the intro so put your pinky onto the second string
_ Third fret to bring that in so start off with down strokes on the face _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
Bring the pinky stop _ _ bringing in that down 7th note _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
Down down down down down down down
All right, _ and [A] the verse chords we need for the verse are A
[D] _ _ D
[C] _ _ _ [D]
C and back to D _ twice, okay
[A] And the strum I'm basically [F] just doing straight up down [E] up down up down to [A] the strum
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [D] _
_ _ _ [C] _ _ _ _ [D] _
_ I
_ [A] _ _ _ _
[D] _ _ _ _ [C] _ _ _ _
[D] _ _ _ _ [A] _ _ _ [D] _
_ _ _ _ [C] _ _ _ [D] _
_ _ _ [A] _ _ _ [D] _ _
_ _ _ [C] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [A] _ _ _ _ Mean
[C] That _ [D] _ _ _ _ [A] _
_ _ course is just straight _ [C] _ to the C
_ _ [D] _
_ _ _ _ _ D _ back in the [A] USSR
_ _ _ [D]
D
_ [E] _ _ _ _ Or an e7 as you're coming out of the course
These these [C] sevens these [G] and some d7 you could need to change you if you really [A] wanted to
_ _ verse 2 same as chords verse 1
_ _ [D] _ _ _ [C] _ _ _
_ [D] _ _ _ [A] _ _ _ [D] _
_ _ _ [C] _ _ _ [D] See of course I
_ [C] See _
_ [D] _ _ _ Back [F#] in the US back in the USS _ [G#] so in that part where he's just doing that you can
[G] Literally just mute the strings [F] the strum to keep [F#] the rhythm
_ _ _ [F] _ _ _ [F#m] _
[A] _ _ _ _ Coming out of the second um chorus, there's that little nice [B] little [A] rustle or you could just go from a to a
_ _ Set [Em] or you can go on the [A] fifth string open double [B] pluck
second fret double pluck [C] _ _ _ _
third fret double pluck
fourth fret [C#] double pluck
[D] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [A] What you could do if you wanted to because at that point you're on the a you could bar across the a
_ Then just bring that bar up to the fifth string
_ [F#] _ _ So you're borrowing across
Five strings there, but only really playing the middle four [C] then bring your third up here [C#] and then fourth _ [A]
so
_ _ _ [E] _ _ _ _
_ _ [D] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ It's up to you all right, [A] I suppose the other thing I should mention to you when you're on the
_ _ verse with your eyes [C] and
disease [F#] on [A] the
On the a if you do want to bar across the a it does open up then the [F#] pinky to play the fourth thumb
[C] fret
[A] string
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Am] Same with the D when you're playing you [D] did
fourth fourth fret on the third string
_ _ _ _ _ and on the [C] C
_ It'd be releasing the fourth string [D] and playing the third string [C] on the second
So just take your finger off [Am] the fourth and put it under the third
[C] _
_ _ _ _ _ So you [A] get this?
_ _ _ [D] _ _ _ _
[G] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ [A] _
_ _ [D] _ _ _ [C] _ _ _
[D] _ _ _ _ [A] It's up to you you throw little bits and pieces of it in if that makes it sound better for you or you so
_ Right where do we [D] get up to?
_ [B] _
[C] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [A] _ _ _
_ To the a then the run up the fifth string _
[C] _ _ [D] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [B] _ _ _ _ Playing a B there
_ But if you don't like the bar chord B you could get get away with the playing a B7
Well, it [Am] doesn't sound [C] quite as right, but it is easier
[B] _ _ [E] and
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[D] _ _ _ The D [A] and then back to the a
_ _ _ Like at the end of the [D] course Good [E] _ Just _ _ _ slowly
[D] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [A] _ _
We _ _ _ go _ to the a7 as I said there
_ _ [D] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [B] _
B _ _ or _ _
C7 if you like
[E] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [D] _ _ _ _
_ D or _ D7
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ That's probably the right chord but D D7 whatever you [A] like _ _ _ _
Up [D] _ _ _ down the [E] D
And _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ That's it your [G] whole song _
That's the verse chorus and bridge.
So the rest of the songs just made up of those parts.
There's [A] a solo in the middle _
[D] _ _ _ _ [C] _ _ _ _
[D] _ _ _ [A] Sometimes I play the [D] A and then I let it in
[B] We throw in that little [A] hit on the fourth fret [D] on the third string
_ _ [C] Same with the C
_ [D] _ _ _ _ [A] _
I just like playing the full A there but it's very hard _
_ It's very hard to be able to hit that note up there
While you're [D#m] playing the A without barring it so
[F#] Anyway, there's several different little variations you can do in that song
So I'm sure you'll be able to figure out what [F] works well for you.
So
