Try Some, Buy Some – George Harrison

Tuning: Standard
George Harrison
Try Some, Buy Some (1973)
(Harrison)
From: "Living In The Material World"
Very tough ... The bass does so many interesting things here, which makes
the song extremely hard to reproduce alone on an acoustic. I chose to omit
the bass from the [Bridge] for the sake of playability but included the
full version at the end of this chord sheet.
Another weird part is what I called [Build up] here. I counted it out: it
consists of 33 beats, but I’m not sure of the time signature. I finally
opted for 11 bars in 3/4 time. Any ideas that may be more intuitive?
