THE BEATLES
FOR NO ONE
(Lennon/McCartney)
Revolver (1966)



 
    
 I recommend palm-muting throughout the song.  See below for fingering
suggestions.  



Tune all strings down 1/2 step!


C                C/B
  Your day breaks, your mind aches,
Am              C/G
  You find that all her words of 
   F              Bb7
  Kindness linger on
               C
  When she no longer needs you.


C             C/B
  She wakes up, she makes up,
Am              C/G
  She takes her time and doesn't
   F                Bb7
  Feel she has to hurry,
          C
  She no longer needs you

              Dm           A7
  And in her eyes you see nothing,
Dm            A7               Dm
  No sign of love behind the tears.
            A7
  Cried for no one,
Dm              A7                Dm      Gsus4   G
  A love that should have lasted years.


C             C/B
  You want her, you need her,
Am            C/G
  And yet you don't believe her
   F                 Bb7
  When she says her love is dead
        C
  You think she needs you.


(French horn solo)
C        G/B
Am        G
F        Bb7    C


              Dm            A7
  And in her eyes you see nothing,
Dm            A7               Dm
  No sign of love behind the tears.
            A7
  Cried for no one,
Dm              A7                Dm      Gsus4   G
  A love that should have lasted years.


C             C/B
  You stay home, she goes out,
Am              C/G
  She says that long ago she
   F               Bb7
  Knew someone but now he's gone,
        C
  She doesn't need him


C                C/B
  Your day breaks, your mind aches.
Am               C/G
  There will be times when all the
    F                   Bb7
  Things she said will fill your head,
       C
  You won't forget her.

              Dm           A7
  And in her eyes you see nothing,
Dm            A7               Dm
  No sign of love behind the tears.
            A7
  Cried for no one,
Dm              A7                Dm      Gsus4   G
  A love that should have lasted years.
