This Never Happened Before
By Paul McCartney
Tabbed by Sam Borchard
I wrote the chords out with measures to give a sense of timing, everything is in 4/4,
except for one measure with 6 beats which is marked.
Intro:
musings in G
| Am| (x02210@1)E| (022100@1)Am| (x02210@1)E| (022100@1)
| Am (x02210@1) | G#m7 (131141@4) C#m7 (x4242x@1) | F#m7 (131141@2)|
I'm very sure this never happened to me before
|Am E (022100@1)| C#m7 (x4242x@1) | Am (x02210@1) | E (022100@1) | E| (022100@1)I met you and now I'm sure this never happened before
| Am (x02210@1) | G#m7 (131141@4) C#m7 (x4242x@1) | F#m7 (131141@2)|
Now I see this is the way it's supposed to be
|Am E (022100@1)| C#m7 (x4242x@1) | Am (x02210@1) | E (022100@1)|
I met you and now I see this is the way it should be
| Am (x02210@1) D9 | G| (320003@1)This is the way it should be for lovers
|Am7 D9 | G (320003@1)|
They shouldn't go it alone
|Am7 D9 | G (320003@1) E| (022100@1) E(six beats) |
It's not so good when you're on your own
| Am (x02210@1) | G#m7 (131141@4) C#m7 (x4242x@1) | F#m7 (131141@2)|
So come to me now we can be what we want to be
|Am E (022100@1)| C#m7 (x4242x@1) | Am (x02210@1) | E (022100@1)|
I love you and now I see this is the way it should be
|Am | Ethis (022100@1)is the way it should be
| Am (x02210@1) D9 | G| (320003@1)This is the way it should be for lovers
|Am7 D9 | G (320003@1)|
They shouldn't go it alone
|Am7 D9 | G (320003@1) E| (022100@1) E(six beats) |
It's not so good when you're on your own
| Am (x02210@1) | G#m7 (131141@4) C#m7 (x4242x@1) | F#m7 (131141@2)|
I'm very sure this never happened to me before
|Am E (022100@1)| C#m7 (x4242x@1) | Am (x02210@1) | E (022100@1) |
I met you and now I'm sure this never happened before
|Am | E (022100@1) |
this never happened before ...(repeat)...
The song ends strangely as well in the original, I'd suggest just slowing down to an arpeggiated E
Cheers,
Sam
