TIP: Listen to the song to catch the correct guitar play, because this song is mainly based on keyboards (so, play yhe guitar a bit reggae-like, specially in the chorus).

This tab is probably not 100% correct, so feel free to send comments, questions and corrections to my mail.

                                           ENJOY! THE BEATLES FOREVER!
