Paul & Paula - Hey Paula
There is another tab out there, but I noticed that it wasn't correct. Here's the
correct version. Stick with bar chords throughout the song, strumming lightly
mostly on the high strings like any ol' doo-wop-ish song. However, the second Em
in the chorus sounds better in its low open form. Some chords can be 7th-ed for
effect if you wish. Enjoy!
VERSE 1 (Paul)
G Em C D
Hey, hey, Paula, I wanna marry you,
G Em C D
hey, hey, Paula, no one else could ever do.
G Em G Em
I've waited so long for school to be through,
C D
Paula, I can't wait no more, for you.
G C G D7
My love, my love.
