SHE LOVES YOU (Lennon/McCartney) The Beatles Past Masters Vol. I Note: The "yea yea yea" phrase is a simple G-> F#-> E (these are notes, not chords). It gets interesting at the end of each chorus when the run goes G-> F#-> E-> D and the E AND the D notes get held out. This creates that cool dissonance. The dissonace is all in the vocals, but I'm writing it here as a G6 chord for the guitar (see below for fingering). I just want you to be aware that the Beatles are not playing this chord on their instruments (they are playing a regular G chord).
