Blue Jay Way by Beatles

Submitted by Andy Lakin

The bass line is pretty simple and matches the rhythm of the lyrics

G|---0-------3-----6-----3-------4-------------------------------|

D|------------------------------------------------------------------|

A|------------------------------------------------------------------|

E|------------------------------------------------------------------|

There’s a fog upon L.A.

G|---0-------3-----6-----3-------4-------------------------------|

D|------------------------------------------------------------------|

A|------------------------------------------------------------------|

E|------------------------------------------------------------------|

And my friends have lost their way

G|---0-------3-----6-----6--------0-----3-------6--------------|

D|------------------------------------------------------------------|

A|------------------------------------------------------------------|

E|------------------------------------------------------------------|

We'll be over soon they said

G|---3-------6-----9-----6-----3----9----7----------------------|

D|------------------------------------------------------------------|

A|------------------------------------------------------------------|

E|-------------------------------------------------------|

Now they've lost themselves instead.

Please don’t be long

G|---0---2---3---2--0- -2---0-----------------------------------|

D|------------------------------------------------------------------|

A|------------------------------------------------------------------|

E|-------------------------------------------------------|

Please don’t you be very long

G|--0--2--3--2---------------------------------------------------------|

D|------------------------------------------------------------------|

A|------------------------------------------------------------------|

E|-------------------------------------------------------|

Please don’t be long

G|---0--3--2--0--------------------------------------------------|

D|------------------3--2-------------------------------------------|

A|------------------------------------------------------------------|

E|------------------------------------------------------|

For I may be asleep

G|---0-------3-----6-----3-------4-------------------------------|

D|------------------------------------------------------------------|

A|------------------------------------------------------------------|

E|-------------------------------------------------------|

Now it only goes to show

G|---0-------3-----6-----3-------4-------------------------------|

D|------------------------------------------------------------------|

A|------------------------------------------------------------------|

E|-------------------------------------------------------|

And I told them where to go

G|---0-------3-----6-----3-------6-------------------------------|

D|------------------------------------------------------------------|

A|------------------------------------------------------------------|

E|-------------------------------------------------------|

Ask a policeman on the street

G|---3-------6-----9-----6-----3----9----7----------------------|

D|------------------------------------------------------------------|

A|------------------------------------------------------------------|

E|-------------------------------------------------------|

There's so many there to meet.

D|------------------------------------------------------------------|

A|------------------------------------------------------------------|

E|------------------------------------------------------------------|

Now it's past my bed I know

G|---0-------3-----6-----3-------4-------------------------------|

D|------------------------------------------------------------------|

A|------------------------------------------------------------------|

E|------------------------------------------------------------------|

And I'd really like to go

G|---0-------3-----6-----3-------4-------------------------------|

D|------------------------------------------------------------------|

A|------------------------------------------------------------------|

E|------------------------------------------------------------------|

Soon will be the breath of day
