D  Em
 
Em               Bm             Am             G   Em
Since she's been gone I want no-one to talk to me
             Bm               Am                   G
It's not the same but I am to blame, it's plain to see
 
       Em             A                  Em
So go away, leave me alone, don't bother me
 
          Bm             Am                   G   Em
I can't believe that she would leave me on my own
              Bm               Am             G
It's just not right when every night I'm all alone
 
            Em                 A                 Em
I've got no time for you right now, don't bother me
 
            D            Em
I know I'll never be the same
           D             Em
If I don't get her back again
          Bm                 Am
Because I know she'll always be
    C             Em
The only girl for me
 
               Bm                     Am              G   Em
But 'til she's here please don't come near just stay away
             Bm                   Am              G
I'll let you know when she's come home until that day
 
            Em               A                  Em
Don't come around, leave me alone, don't bother me
                               A                 Em
I've got no time for you right now, don't bother me
 
            D            Em
I know I'll never be the same
           D             Em
If I don't get her back again
          Bm                 Am
Because I know she'll always be
    C             Em
The only girl for me
 
               Bm                     Am              G   Em
But 'til she's here please don't come near just stay away
             Bm                   Am              G
I'll let you know when she's come home until that day
 
            Em               A                  Em
Don't come around, leave me alone, don't bother me
A             Em
 Don't bother me  3x

Hi Pen, I played this version as you tabbed the chords with the Beatles recording. It sounds just fine to me. There are some Beatles songs where John and George are playing chords that are in close harmony and/or dissonance. That may throw some people off as to which chords they are hearing being played. Bottom line is that this is a very good tab as far as I am concerned. Thanks for posting it. Tom

Hello..thank you for your interest in this song. I don't agree that the two chords you mention are major, they are, in my opinion, definitely "minor" chords. They are also not 7th chords. The "Beatles" books sometimes get things wrong. Having said that, everyone should play what sounds best to their ears.

I completely agree, it sounds like Bm - A everywhere, except in the bridge ('because I know she'll always be') where Bm - Am seems the good option.
