Strawberry Fields Forever

-------------------------

There are two other versions of this in the archives, but none are in the

right key. I thought a great song such as this deserved a proper tab in the

archives.

Because the recording of this song involved a lot of playing around with

tape speeds, you need to tune down your guitar by a whole step.

So instead of tuning your bottom string to E, tune to D, then tune the other

strings to this by playing at the 5th/4th fret (you know the routine ...)

You should end up tuned to DGCFAD.

This means that the song is based on the C chord for the guitar, but it

ends up being in the key of Bb.

I've tried to give a guitar part that does justice to all the things that are

going on in the song. For the first bit it's fairly straight forward since the

song has a guitar playing herE|- but later on I've tried to tab out a guitar

version of what the cellos and trumpets are doing.

Of course you can't play all of the song on just one guitar - but you can do

a pretty good job. I've written the chords above each line of tab if you just

want to strum along, and the words are underneath the line of tab.

Intro: ---------

This is played on the mellotron, but you can do it fairly easily on guitar.
