The Beatles

From: Scott A. Yanoff 


It seems not too long ago many people were posting their rendition of this
song and such, so I decided to take every version of this song that was
posted and turn it into what I thought was a decent version, based on sound
and ease of play.  

The Beatles

In My Life
----------

Main Riff: E----5-----0-4-
           B--2---2-3-----
           G--2-----------

There are places I'll remember  
          A             F#m

All my life though some have changed
       Bm Dm       A

Some for ever not for better
         A            F#m

Some have gone, and some remain.
          Bm Dm     A

All these places have their moments
          F#m               Bm

With lovers and friends, I still can recall
     G                     A

Some are dead and some are living
         F#m               Bm

In my life, I've loved them all
   D  Dm         A

{Repeat main riff, and continue as verse above}

But of all these friends and lovers
There is no one compared with you
And these memories lose their meaning
When I think of love as something new
Thought I know I'll never lose affection
For people and things that went before
I know I'll often stop and think about them
In my life I'll love you more
In my life I'll love you more

At the end, there is the first riff above, then a higher Dm (played as a bar
chord at the 5th fret) then the riff below:

                             E7       A
Last Riff: E----5-----0-4----4--2--4--5
           B--2---2-3--------3--------5
           G--2--------------4--------6
           D--------------------------7
