“I’m a Loser” by the Beatles from “Beatles for Sale”
 
 
[Intro]
 
      Am D          Am D
I'm a lo-ser, I'm a lo-ser,
        Am           Fmaj7   D
And I'm not what I appear to be.
 
 
[Verse 1]
 
G          D           F           G
Of all the love I have won or have lost,
G            D             F          G
There is one love I should never have crossed.
G         D         F          G
She was a girl in a million my friend, 
G             D               F          G
I should have known she would win in the end. 
 
 
[Chorus]
 
      Am D          Am                 D
I'm a lo-ser, and I lost someone who's near to me,
      G  Em           Am          Fmaj7    D
I'm a lo-ser, and I'm not what I appear to be. 
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
G          D           F          G
Although I laugh and I act like a clown,
G            D         F         G
Beneath this mask I am wearing a frown, 
G            D            F             G
My tears are falling like rain from the sky, 
G         D        F           G
Is it for her or myself that I cry. 
 
 
[Chorus]
 
      Am D          Am                 D
I'm a lo-ser, and I lost someone who's near to me,
      G  Em           Am           Fmaj7   D
I'm a lo-ser, and I'm not what I appear to be. 
 
 
[Solo]
 
  G                  D                 F               G   (x2)
 
  Am                 D                 Am              D

[Verse 3]
 
G           D         F            G
What I have done to deserve such a fate, 
G    D           F           G
I realize I have left it too late. 
G           D                F        G
And so it's true pride comes before a fall, 
G           D           F              G
I'm telling you so that you won't lose all.
 
 
 
[Chorus]
 
      Am D          Am                 D
I'm a lo-ser, and I lost someone who's near to me,
      G  Em           Am           Fmaj7   D
I'm a lo-ser, and I'm not what I appear to be.

If you watch live performance of "im a loser" you will see that the chorus and the intro is correct. If you look at the live recording you will see that John lennon keeps his little finger on the 3th fret of the high e during the whole verse. the verse is: G Dsus4 Fmaj7add9 G e|--3-------3-----------3---------3----| B|--3-------3-----------1---------3----| G|--0-------2-----------2---------0----| D|--0-------0-----------3---------0----| A|--2-------0-----------0---------2----| E|--3-------2-----------1---------3----|

Of course this is the Fadd9-Chord. Shure!
