In My Life
 (Lennon/McCartney)
 Rubber Soul (1965) 
 
 
 
  
     
  This song is in A, but much simpler to play in G.  So capo 
 at the second fret. There are some cool things in this song
 that I can't really include in a guitar tab, like the incredible
 bass line and the keyboard solo.  I only wish I could play that solo.  
 George Martin played that right? Note the synchopated G7 at the end
 of the first and third line of the verses.  I think that is so cool.
 Purists can transcribe this back into A.

             G    D   Em    G7    <--awesome!!
 There are places I remember
        C   Cm             G
 In my li---ife    though some have changed,
         G     D       Em    G7
 Some forever not for better,
            C  Cm       G  
 Some have go--one and some remain.
 
 
            Em                C
 All these places had their moments,
        F                    G
 With lovers and friends I still can recall,
           Em                A7
 Some are dead and some are living,
    Cm             G       
 In my life I've loved them all.

         G           D          Em   G7
 But of all these friends and lovers,
          C  Cm     G
 There is no one compares with you,
             G       D            Em   G7
 And these mem'ries lose their meaning,
          C       Cm      G      
 When I think of love as something new.
 
 
           Em                     C
 Though I know I'll never lose affection
       F                     G
 For people and things that went before,
    Em                             A7
 I know I'll often stop and think about them,
    Cm         G
 In my life I love you more.
