                Be Here Now – George Harrison

Written by: George Harrison
From: "Living In The Material World"
 (1973)

Tabbed by: maguri
Tuning: Open G6 / E-G-D-G-B-e + capo
 2nd fret

Harrison uses a special form of Open
 G (?) on this recording; it's not
so difficult to do, though: Just 
tune down the 5th (A) string down to
 G.
If you want to play the song as one 
hears it on his recording, this
tuning is mandatory.

If you don't want to take the 
trouble of re-tuning , transpose 
this
chord sheet +2 to the original key 
of A; I added some voicings for
this key, too
