Jealous Guy (Lennon)
This is a bit of a mix of the Lennon original and the Roxy Music cover...
[Intro]
G / Em / D / / / D7 / / / Em / / /
[Verse 1]
G Em D D6 [ D7 ]
I was dreaming of the past
D7 Em Em7
and my heart was beating fast.
Em6 D Dsus4 D
I began to lose control,
Em Em7 C
I began to lose control.
[Chorus]
G Dm/F C Dsus4
I didn't mean to hurt you,
G Dm/F Bb
I'm sorry that I made you cry.
G G/F# Em Em7/D
I didn't want to hurt you,
C G
I'm just a jealous guy.
[Verse 2]
G Em D D6 [ D7 ]
I was feeling insecure,
D7 Em Em7
you might not love me anymore.
Em6 D Dsus4 D
I was shivering inside,
Em Em7 C
I was shivering inside.
[Chorus]
G Dm/F C Dsus4
I didn't mean to hurt you,
G Dm/F Bb
I'm sorry that I made you cry.
G G/F# Em Em7/D
Oh no, I didn't want to hurt you,
C G
I'm just a jealous guy.

thought that you was trying to hide.

I was swallowing my pain,

I was swallowing my pain.

I'm just a jealous guy.

great great great tab

Great tab. In my opinion, the second "Dm/F" that you have over "...didn't mean to make you cry..." should just be a straight F chord.
Other than that, excellent.

the chords are great, the whistling part's all wrong though
