All You Need Is Love : Chords

well, the other song i get the most requests for tablature on is my cover of the beatles song "all you need is love". so here it is :)


oh yeah, almost forgot, here's the video of my cover for your reference.





the chords i use are...

G - 3st fret E string, 2nd fret (or muted) A string, open D string, open G string, 3rd fret B string, third fret E string.

G/F# is used transitionally and it means a G chord with your finger on the second fret of the low E string, you know, like a walkdown from G to Eminor

Em - open E string, 2nd fret A string, 2nd fret D string, open D string, open G string, open B string, 3rd fret (or open) E string.

C - muted E string, 3rd fret A string, 2nd fret D string, open G string, 1st fret B string, open E string

C/B same as a C but with the 2nd fret on the A string instead of 3rd fret. use this one to walk down to Am

Am - muted E string, open A string, 2nd fret D string, 2nd fret G string, 1st fret B string, open E string.

Am/G - same as Am except with 3rd fret on the low E string instead of muted. optionally the G string can be left open.

D - muted E string, muted A string, open D string, 2nd fret G string, 3rd fret B string, 2nd fret E string.

D/C - same as D except with 3rd fret on the A string. optionally the high E string can be left open.

B7 - muted E string, 2nd fret A string, 1st fret D string, 2nd fret G string, open B string, 2nd fret E string.


INTRO

The timing on the intro is a little weird, with the signature repeatedly changing back and forth from 4/4 to 3/4. I'll put the beats above the chords to kind of give you an idea.
