"Julia"
The Beatles
ok.... you'll need a capo on the second fret for this one... hopefully it's
(mostly) right... after you listen to it too long... well, you know, your ear
gets harmonically whacked. ugh.... have fun...
oh yeah... consider all the notes to be up 2fr... it just doesn't sound right
in C... also the chords are from a book... some of the 7th's don't sound like
7th's to me and I don't have them tabbed that way.
Part I: (verse/chorus)

Half of what I say is meaning less,
D Bm7 F#m7 A7
But I say it just to reach you Ju-----li-a.
[II] D Bm7 Am Am7 B7 G9 Gm7
Ju--li-a, Ju--li-a, Ocean child calls me.
[I'] D Bm7 F#m7 A7
So I sing a song of love, Ju-----li-a.
[II] D Bm7 Am Am7 B7 G9 Gm7
Ju--li-a, sea-shell eyes, windy smile calls me.
[I'] D Bm7 F#m7 A7 D

[III] C#m D Bm7 Bm6 F#m7 D
Her hair of floating sky is shimmering, glimmering, in the sun.
[II] D Bm7 Am Am7 B7 G9 Gm7
Ju--li-a, Ju--li-a, morning moon touch me.
[I'] D Bm7 F#m7 A7
So I sing a song of love, Ju-----li-a.
[I] D Bm7 F#m7
When I cannot sing my heart,
D Bm7 F#m7 A7
I can only speak my mind, Ju-----li-a.
[II] D Bm7 Am Am7 B7 G9 Gm7
Ju--li-a, sleeping sand, silent cloud touch me.
[I'] D Bm7 F#m7 A7
So I sing a song of love, Ju-----li-a.
[play part II as instrumental without I']
[I] D Bm7 F#m7 D F#m7 D F#m7 A7 D
So I sing a song of love for Ju---li-a, Ju---li-a, Ju-----li-a

You'll need a capo for this one on the 1st or 2nd fret.
The TAB for this might look a bit daunting at first, but it's based
on pretty straight forward chord shapes.
The only chords you need are these :
EADGBE EADGBE EADGBE EADGBE EADGBE
332010 002213 022003 320033 353333
C/G Am7/E Em G Gm7
EADGBE EADGBE EADGBE EADGBE EADGBE
353335 575655 131213 131114 224432
Gm9 A7 F9 Fm7 Bm/F#
EADGBE EADGBE EADGBE EADGBE EADGBE
002212 022030 022020 022010 332000
Am6/E Em7 Em6 Emadd#5 Cmaj7/G
To get the picking pattern in your head, I'll give a brief
explanation.
The key to it is the movement of the thumb. The thumb picks out
the notes on the E, A and D strings. For each chord played, the
order of strings which the thumb picks is the same - it goes
like this :
A D E D
While the thumb gets on with this, use your other fingers to
fill in the notes on the top strings.
If you try it a few times, slowly, you should pick up the natural
rhythm which the picking pattern has.
Then, just practice !
I've tabbed the song out in full, although you'll soon realise
that a lot of it is very similar with certain sections being
repeated here and there.
