Here's my interpretation of Paul McCartney's, "Here Today." If
you spot any errors please let me know. Although I have only put
in the chord names, this song sounds great if it's fingerpicked.
The pickup note is the C on the 5th string (3rd fret) and it
quickly slides up to the C# to start the Em/C# chord. Enjoy!

What about the time we met,

WELL I SUPPOSE THAT YOU COULD SAY THAT WE WERE PLAYING HARD TO GET.
Didn't understand a thing.

Because there wasn't any reason left to keep it all inside.
Never understood a word.

But you were always there with a smile.
