In My Life The Beatles
--------------------------------------------------------------------
THE BEATLES - IN MY LIFE (Lennon/McCartney) From RUBBER SOUL album.
Released on 3rd December 1965.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by:PJVillanueva
I have included the great piano solo by George Martin. I think it is
not too difficult to master and can be played as two different guitar
parts (treble and bass). It may be a little help explaining the last
measure of the solo, in which the third beat contains an 8th note
along with a sextet of 32nd notes that run into the last note on the
fourth beat of the measure.
It's really fast and it was recorded at half speed and speeded up
later giving it more precission and that fine harpsichord tone, but
I think that it can be played using a chain of five pull offs with
just two hammer ons.
There are places I'll remember
All my life though some have changed
Some forever not for better
Some have gone and some remain
All these places have their moments
With lovers and friends I still can recall
Some are dead and some are living
In my life I've loved them all
But of all these friends and lovers
There is no one compares with you
And these memories lose their meaning
When I think of love as something new
Though I know I'll never lose affection
For people and things that went before
I know I'll often stop and think about them
In my life I love you more
Though I know I'll never lose affection
For people and things that went before
I know I'll often stop and think about them
In my life I love you more
In my life I love you more
