Junk
(Lennon/McCartney)
The Beatles
Anthology III (1996)
This is the tab of Paul's demo which is on the Anthology III. I listened
To both versions (the real song on the first Paul's album and the demo)
and I definitely prefer the demo (obviously George Martin is a better
producer than Paul !). I didn't put the chords because it's a song for 1
acoustic guitar and no accompaniment. The notes in brackets are optional.
There's only 2 parts in the song that you repeat several times with some
little variations. You will have to play it with an open tuning because
of a very deep D in the chorus that you can only play if you tune down
your guitar. I sended 2 versions, you have to play the first with this
tuning : D-G-C-G-B-e, and the second with this one : D-A-D-G-B-e. The
first is much more simple (though the 2nd is easy too) and it sounds much
better, that's why I think Paul must have played the song that way.
