great job man... not too sure on the outro, but the rest is really good. also... i know i'm being a little bastard about this, but i'm slightly OCD and this kind of thing bothers me... it's "cast iron shore" not "cast iron *****". maybe you just slipped (s is right under the w), but i just wanted to make a note of it for other people who read this tab. anyhoo... great job on the tab!

Nice work. I made a few slight changes, mostly just to the positioning of the chords over the words, and writing the chords over all the verses, and ditching that outro. Pasting it in in case someone else finds it useful: Intro chord: G7? Am F7 I told you 'bout Strawberry fields, Am F7 you know the place where nothing is real Am Gm7 C7 Well here's another place you can go Gm7 C7 Where everything flow - ows F7 D7 Looking through the bent backed tulips F7 D7 To see how the other half lives F7 G7 Looking through a glass onion Am F7 I told you 'bout the Walrus and me man Am F7 You know that we're as close as can be man Am Gm7 C7 Well here's another clue for you all Gm7 C7 The Walrus was Paul F7 D7 Standing on a cast iron ***** yeah F7 D7 Lady Madonna tryin' to make ends meet yeah F7 G7 Looking through a glass onion BRIDGE Am F Am Am7 oh yeah oh yeah oh yeah F7 G7 Looking through a glass onion Am F7 I told you 'bout the Fool on the Hill Am F7 I tell you that he's living there still Am Gm7 C7 Well here's another place you can be Gm7 C7 Listen to me F7 D7 Fixing a hole in the ocean F7 D Trying to make a dove tail joint F7 G7 Looking through a glass onion
