Hi all somebody asked for the chords for starting over from that double fantasy album and
Kind of typical John Lennon chords and standard tuning which _ [N] I don't know that John ever did anything
It wasn't so we'll start right off with it.
It's in a so I'm not gonna play along with it
But I'll just give you the chords for it.
So the intro goes like this is where he does that
_ Together or whatever it is [A] _ starts on a
I
_ _ _ Don't know the words to it, but the second chord is a very beatily kind of chord that John used
fairly regularly Paul did too sometimes and so the you go from an a regular a and
At the second fret and then the next chord is high e at the first fret
_ G and B at the second and then D string at the third
So we let that through these intro chords.
You can let the a string ring open
Right _ _ _ _ [A] _ _ _ _ _ and
Third chord is [F#m] a F sharp minor
[B] So you normally would bar that like [F#m] this
_ But on this one [N] you're letting the a ring open and you're really only fretting the the four highest strings of an F sharp minor
GB and a at the [F#m] second D at the fourth
so [A] special
together
Back to that same chord again
You just did call number two.
_ We have grown a
And then he's [E] having
_ _ _ [A] _
_ _ [E] _ That's just a t787 so then the [A] second time through it's a
_ _ _ [A] _
Second chord is the same third chords the same
[F#m] _ Now the next chord instead of going back down to [A] this
Sort of climbs one more and that's just an a7 a regular a at the second fret and then play the
_ High E string at the third fret
Let's take a chance and fly [D] away deep _
Somewhere
[Dm] _ _ to D minor
alone
[A] _ _ _ So when you do the _ the song proper starts with a _ _
_ _ Same chord is the second chord right but here it gets different it goes [Bm] to be minor
_ _ You do do do
[E] _
So that's an e or any seven
I'm not sure whether he's playing at a seven there or regular e but listen to it for self and see if you
Can hear whether it's a seven chord?
_ _ _ [Bm] _ _ [A] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [Bm] _ _ _
_ [E] _ _ _ _ [Bm] _ _
When [E] I see you [Bm] so let's be my
_ [E] _ _
[D#] C sharp minor
[C#m] _ It's like [F#] we
[D#m] F sharp minor C sharp minor to F.
Sorry C sharp minor to F sharp [F#] major
And [D] that's the part these are the the real signature kind of John Lennon song
writing course
_ [A] from [F] this
to this
[Bm] _ _ [E] _ _ _
_ [Bm] And when [E] I see you darling C sharp [C#m] minor
_ _ [F#] _ Do F sharp [Bm] pulling it back to B minor again, [E] it'll be just like
[A] _ _ _ _
_ Again that chord again the second chord started [A] over a for that second chord again
_ That starts it off again with another verse [G#] you do _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Bm] _ _ _ _ [E] _ _
He [Bm] be my again
_ _ [E] _ _ _
[C#m] See sharp on it.
Yes.
He's her minor [C] F sharp [F#] major _
_ _ [Bm] _ B minor
_ _ [E] _
_ _ _ [A] Back to that [A] second chord _ now go to a one more time
_ _ _ [G] G _ _ _ so this is the that sort of middle eight part
Why don't we take off [Am] alone alone?
a minor
_ _ [D] To D like we used to in [G] the early days to G
_ [E]
You don't [G] have to walk it down, but GT
[E] _ _ _ _
[Am] _ _ _ _ _ [D] _ _ _
_ [G] _ And that it goes
[E] _ So [C] it's that same chord sequence twice [Am] a minor.
Why don't we take [G] a
Why don't we take off [Am] to a minor? _ _
[D] To D
_ G _ _
_ [E] _ _ _ [Am] A minor again
_ [G] _ [D] _ _ _ _ GG back [E] to e7
Oh
[A] _ _
So it goes through that and then back to another verse but at [C] one after the second time it goes through [Am] this a
And [G] _ [E] he _ _ [N] goes back into the intro chords again except now the drums and the bass it's a full complete band thing
But it's the same course
[A] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ You know, it's [F] when the the backup singers [Dm] are coming in so [F#m] you go through the same
_ _ [A] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [E] _ _ _
_ _ Then one more of those goes to the sequence [A] again _ _ _ _ _ _
[F#m] _ _ _ Right [D#] after I'm out of them the same as [A] you wouldn't
_ _ _ _ _ [D] _ _ _
_ [Dm] _ _ Back to D minor just like an intro [D]
and then it's when [G#] it goes to that outro section and all that is is a _ _
_ [A] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ And _ _
_ [G#m] _ It's just that a chord [F] to that second thing whatever it is
[D#] Over and over again through the outro.
So it's really kind of your usual
John Lennon mishmash of chords, but just arranged in a really cool way
Has it kind of an Elvis feels with the way sings it but
you know [C#] when you hear
[D] When you hear beetle [F] tunes that [C#m] have C sharp [F#] minor in it to [G#] F sharp major
That's kind of one John's [Bm] signature things.
He used a lot [G#] of B minor
_ [F#] He was fond [E] of he and F sharp
[E] _
_ [D#] But but very typical of his and and in my mind kind of one of his top [B] five
Best solo tunes so good luck with that one and
