Imagine – John Lennon

“Imagine” was the best-selling hit of John Lennon’s solo career after his time with The Beatles and was co-produced with Yoko Ono. I discovered that this song sounds a lot better at 1.25x speed (a setting youtube kindly provides) and makes it much more challenging and fun to play 😀

 

GE-GE-GE-GE
AF-AF-AF-AF  
A-B-^C
(  ~ intro melody, repeat a few times 🙂 ~  )

 

E – G – E      G         B      B – A

E    G-E    G    B   B-A
It isn’t hard to do

E  –  G       E    G   B    B    A
Nothing to kill or die for

E       G    E-G-B    B-A
And no religion too…
