The original song is played on ukelele but this chords work as well on guitar and it
really well.

F#m - Bm - C#m (throughout all the song)
(ukelele intro, same chords)
Verse:(only ukelele)
F#m Bm C#m F#m Bm
I read your letter, I read your letter
C#m F#m Bm C#m F#m C#m
It said, I love John Lennon forever
F#m Bm C#m
And I know you think I’m nuts (think I’m nuts)
F#m Bm C#m
But I really hate his guts (hate his guts)
F#m Bm
And now you’ve half inched my copy of pet sounds
C#m F#m Bm C#m
I think you’ve taken everything from me I’ve had to give
Verse:(drums and bass start)
F#m Bm C#m F#m
I die for beauty, I die for beauty
Bm C#m
Adjusted in the tomb
F#m
Until the moss reached our lips,
Bm C#m
And covered up our names
F#m Bm C#m
Sweet is the swamp with its secrets
Chorus 1:(same chords as verse and same rythm)

Tonight
Verse:
F#m Bm C#m
Because I’ve never really missed someone (missed someone)
F#m Bm C#m
I never really missed someone (missed someone)
F#m Bm C#m
I never really missed someone before
F#m Bm C#m
And now I’m going to the country, to paint my mail box blue
F#m Bm C#m
I’m not going to paint myself on you
F#m Bm C#m
I’m going to the city, to dine more
F#m Bm
You can make me a palette on your floor
C#m
But I won’t stay the night
F#m Bm C#m
Cos I, read your letter
F#m Bm C#m
About how you love Sergeant Pepper
F#m Bm C#m F#m
But I know that someday I’ll do better
Chorus 2:(same chords as verse and same rythm)
Bm C#m F#m Bm C#m
So don't kiss me, kiss me, kiss me
F#m Bm C#m
Don’t kiss me, kiss me, kiss me,
F#m Bm C#m
Don’t kiss me, kiss me, kiss me
F#m Bm C#m
Tonight
Bass and drums only while it sounds guitar feedback, no ukelele.
Guitar solo: it's played on F# minor pentatonic, on 14th fret. It's not too difficult to
along with but tab it out would be quite a hard work.
