This song is one of John Lennon’s songs however it is different from the version on
Ono Band when he is playing with a band. I’m 99% positive this is the correct tab for the
version. I have listened to this son a million times and finally decided to tab it out.
is from John Lennon’s Acoustic album. Some lyrics have been changed for this version from
other version.
