This is "Well Well Well" by John Lennon. I think it should definately be
played with at least some distortion. I've only tabbed the verses, since I
can't exactly figure out what he's doing during the chorus, but here it
goes!

She looked so beautiful I could eat her
(Chorus)
(Verse 2)
I took my loved one to a big field
so we could watch the English sky
We both were nervous feeling guilty
and neither one of us knew just why
(Chorus) start screaming at the top of your lungs for a few minutes, then
(Solo)
(Chorus)
(Verse 3)
We sat and talked of revolution
Just like two liberals in the sun
We talked of women's liberation
And how the hell we could get things done
(Chorus)
(Verse 2, again)
I took my loved one to a big field
so we could watch the English sky
We both were nervous feeling guilty
and neither one of us knew just why
(Chorus)
done.
All in all, it's a pretty simple song -- No chords to remember, it's
actually
just playing a blues scale a few frets down. Practice it for a little
while.
The hardest part is hitting the open 1st string on almost every note. It's
a
real pain. If anyone can figure out the stuff he does during the chorus,
it
would be greatly appreciated. I think it's just playing muted and
semi-muted
strings, but I'm not sure. If anyone has any miscelanious Paul McCartney
chords or tabs from 'McCartney' or 'Ram', please send them to me.
