Something - The Beatles (George Harrison)
Tabbed by: Rhys Gabriel
Tuning: Standard (EADGBe)
Alright, the other versions don't seem to be quite the way it was meant to be played (halfstep or
full step up). So hope this helps, especially for those who love the Anthology acoustic version
much better than the Abby Road version. The big difference is that Abbey Road is played just like
this, but Anthology plays it in the key of A, so if you choose to play it like that, you will
have to use the transposer and set it to -3 (Three steps down.) Otherwise, that's all. Hope yall
like my first tab! (Thank you to carriep63 for the edits (And for the second time as well,
soundsmuch better.)) Now this is the Anthology version, so not everything will sound exactly like
the recordings on Abby Road. For me personally, I like playing an Em at the second line of the
verse instead of a C, but the C sounds much more correct, and I personally do C# at the end of
the verse, but D# sounds much better when the B string is brought out. Hope you enjoy!
