Something – Paul McCartney
E|E|E|E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------||||
Written by: George Harrison
Tabbed by: maguri
Tuning: Soprano-C (g-C-E-A)
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.
