- artist: Beatles
- title: Her Majesty
- album: Abbey Road

-
-
- her majesty's a pretty nice girl but she doesn't have a lot to say
- her majesty's a pretty nice girl but she changes from day to day
- I wanna tell her that I love her a lot but I got to get a belly full of wine
- her majesty's a pretty nice girl someday I'm gonna make her mine ooh yeah
- someday I'm gonna make her mine
-
-
- possible version one: the basic bass line
- (I know this song has no bass, but this is what it'd be)
-
- parts above the brackets are played faster to fit in two beats

- possible version three: upper fretboard tapping
-
- I know jack shit about tapping...
- I've seen one friend do it and it blew my mind; this is NOT the kind
- where you tap with the right hand high on the fretboard and the left hand
- low on the fretboard doing a counter line. Stu Hamm I'm not, nor aspire
- to be. This is for fun. And it helps if you keep your left index
- finger across the 12th fret of both D and G strings to retain clarity and
- harmonics
-
- L=left hand R=right hand
