Something

Here are the unplugged chords that I use to play George Harrison's 1969 hit Something from The Beatles' "Abbey Road" Album. The main verse chord progression, that is based on a great pedal point, is shown below in the original key of C, however, it modulates to the key of A in the bridge. The song is played in a slow 4/4 rock ballad tempo. The chord fingerings I use (in a Standard tuning) are as follows: C = x32010; Cmaj7 = x32000; C7 = x32310; F = 133211; C/E = 032010; D7/F# = 2x021x; G = 320003; G7/B = x2303x; Am = x02210; Am(M7) = x02110; D9/F# = 2x0210; A = x02220; Amaj7 = x02120; F#m = 244222; F#m/E = 0x2222; D = 2x023x; and G = 320033.
