Paul McCartney - Figure of Eight
Originally in E, I play in A capo 2, there’s a lot of 3 in the melody
Intro
A→ BmA→ BmC6→ Bm7
A→ BmA→ BmC6→ Bm7
Vox on the 1, don’t go up on the sus4 chord
AWell, you’ve got me dancing in a Asus4figure of Aeight
ADon’t know if I’m coming or going I’m Asus4early or Alate
Esus4Round and round the F#m7ring I go
Dsus2I want to know
Esus4I want to know
AWhy can’t we travel a contiAsus4nuous Aline?
AMake love reliable covenant Asus4all the Atime
Esus4Up and down the F#m7hills I go
Dsus2I got to know
Esus4I got to know
Vox on the 3 of the key (maj7 of the chord) on “better”
Is it Dsus2better to Esus4love one another
Than to C#mgo for a walk in the F#mdark?
Is it Dsus2better to Esus4love than to give in to C#mhate? C#m→ Bm7→ A→ E
Yeah, we’d Dsus2better take good Esus4care of each other
