Notes:
1. Although it was their second release, the album was mischievously titled Vol. 3 by
George Harrison. According to Jeff Lynne, "That was George's idea. He said, 'Let's confuse
the buggers.'"
2. I've redited this TAB, as upon re-listening to the track, it's Capo'ed.  The evidence
is in the very last two chords.

I apologize for the late reply and lack of clarity. Okay for one thing you don't have to have a capo to play this song. In addition this song is tuned 1/4 step down, that's why it sounds slightly out of tune. If I must I will work on tabs and chords to post on the site to justify my comment.

Overall good tab, thank you! I'm not sure about the Middle 8, though. Here's my reading: | D | E | A | A7 | | D | B7 | E D/F# | E E6 E E6 | D/F# 2-x-0-2-3-x
