Chords for How to Play "She Loves You" by The Beatles on Guitar

Hi, everybody.
What's up?
This is Nikki, and [E] I'm going to show you how to play
She loves you a classic Beatles tune, and I'm going to mix open chords and bar chords
Mostly playing open chords, but there will be a few bar chords so for those of you who don't know bar chords yet
I'll show you some alternatives as I walk through the song so first
We're going to do it's like the first two lines of the chorus that work as an intro
So you're going to start with an open E minor chord?
[Em] _
She loves you yeah, yeah, yeah, then you're going [B] to go to a7 and
If you don't know a7 it's like an open [G] a chord, but you leave the g string open
So it sounds like this [A] she loves you yeah, yeah, yeah
[Dm]
Then you're going to go to open C chord.
She [C] loves you yeah, yeah, [G] yeah
_ _ And that last chord is an open G chord, and that's like the home chord of the song because we're in the key of G
_ [B] _ Okay, now we're in the first verse so you're going to play G.
[G] You think you lost your [B] and then E [Em] minor 7 love
The way you do it.
It's it's like an open E minor chord
But then to get that seven you can put your pinky [Abm] down on the third [G] fret of the B string
So [Em] that way here's basic E minor.
Here's E minor 7 _
_ Okay, so you think you lost your love? _
And then here comes our first bar chord B minor
So I'm at the second fret and my roots on the a string so a string second fret
[Bm] B minor chord
_ Well, I saw her _ [D] Yesterday _ _
Going to D7 open D7 [Bm] so let me just explain these two chords so for those of you that haven't done bar chords
You could do B minor like this
_ _ So instead of having your index finger on the a string
Lift it off and put it on the E string the high E string second fret now
You got a non bar B minor
It's a little brighter sounding the only thing that you want to watch out is you only want to hit the strings
from the D string and down
Otherwise it sounds really muddy [E] if you go like [Bm] this so just the top four strings
Non barred B minor and then here's a D7
[D] It's kind of like [G] a D chord the shape of the D chord
But it's upside down
So it's like a triangle with a bass [D] at the bottom
okay, so
that's gonna be the
Chords for the first two lines, so let me play them in context
[G] You think you [Em] lost your love?
[Bm] I saw her [Am] yesterday
[G] _ She's just [Em] thinking and she [B] told me [D] what to say _
Okay, [G] now you're gonna do the G chord.
She says she loves you and you know that can't [Em] be bad
E minor for on bad now the band they have two guitar players obviously
It's John and George if you want to mimic what they're doing.
There's this little cool melody line
That's really easy to do so basically have your E minor chord
then you're gonna put your pinky on the E strings third fret and go and
Then your ring finger on the E string second fret and _ the let go of it and let the E string be open
So you get [G] this she says she loves you and you know that can't [Em] be bad
_ _ _ _ Okay, and [E] then our next bar chord.
She [Cm] says she loves you
It's a C minor so your root C is on the A strings third fret [Ab] and for those of you who?
You know aren't used to bar [Dm] chords
just take your index finger and place it [Ebm] on the high E strings [Cm] third fret _ and
Again, just thrown from the D string and down so she loves you, and you know you [E] [D] should be glad
_ There's your D7 again, and then here's the full chorus
_ E minor she [Em] loves you yeah, yeah, yeah [A] go into a7 she loves you yeah
Yeah, and then [Cm] you're gonna go to C minor with a love like that
You can kind of do that stop like they're doing with a love like that and then [D] D7
You know you [Bm] should be [G] glad
Going back to the home chord G
_ So that's basically you know the verse and chorus so you just play the same things for the other verses and choruses at the very end
They're gonna repeat that tag with a love like that.
You know you should be glad
So basically let me play the very ending of the song starts E minor she [Em] loves you yeah
Yeah to a7 she loves [A] you yeah
Yeah, and then [E] C minor [Cm] with a love like that [D] D7 you know you [G] should be glad
G going [Em] to E minor
So that's the only thing [G] that's different [Em] G to E minor and then [Cm] with a love like [D] that.
You know you [G] should be glad
_ [Em] With [Cm] a love like that [D] you know you should
_ Be and the very ending is gonna be G E minor C ending on G the [G] big _ _ _
_ [Em] _ Yeah, yeah, yeah
[C] _
Yeah, yeah, _ [G] yeah _
_ _ Now if you want to end it the exact way that the Beatles are doing it
They got they instead of playing the G chord play a G6 because that's that jazzy sound where they yeah
Yeah, _ _ yeah, well they kind of harmonize it.
It sounds really cool
We play [Bm]
G6 is you're gonna have your middle finger playing the root G on the third fret of the E string
_ Then your index finger is going to be on the D string [Eb] second fret
Your pinkies on the G strings fourth fret and finally your ring fingers on the B strings third fret
[E]
And you don't want to play the a string so I mute it with my middle finger _
_ And then you don't want to play the high E string either
So I kind of [G] mute it with the my index finger, and this is the sound of G6
_ _ _ _ Okay, so I hope you had fun doing this
