Rubber Soul (1965)
Okay, I\'ve been putting this one off for awhile because it\'s so hard to describe
one of the chords in the song! To tell you the truth I don\'t even know what it\'s called.
So I\'m gonna call it GOO. Yup GOO. Why? \'Cause I\'m strange. Here it is:
GOO
-1-
-0- Really cool, really easy. I don\'t understand it, but I like it.
-1-
-0-
---
---
It also sounds cool slightly different:
-1-
-0- I play it both ways, hammering the bottom D to match the melody.
-1-
-0-

Before anyone get upset, let me just say, yes I do think this song is capoed somewhere,
probably at the 8th fret in A/Am (The song switches between major and minor). At the end of the song
you can hear exactly how it\'s played. But by itself, this sounds hollow and boring, so I don\'t play
it that way. If I get enough demand for the \"real\" capoed version, I might post it too, but for now
I\'m leaving it in open position, in F. This allows one guitar to do a pretty convincing job. There
are some riffs under there too, but unless your, capoed, they\'re a little \"bastardized,\" so, with
exception to the first riff, I\'m ignoring them for now.
Bass isn\'t my instrument either, so I\'d risk putting something awkward up if I tried to figure
out the bass solo. So sorry, no go there.
No I don\'t speak French either, but that line means \"These are words that go together well.\"
If any French speakers have corrections, let me know.
I apologize for all the problems in this post. Please don\'t flame me for this! I do this
for free ya know!
