Ok, I found a Tab for this song already on this site, and just looked to my feet in
disgust, as if it's not bad enough that the chords are way out, the lyrics are wrong,
so here is the correct version, as shown in the book from the John Lennon Acoustic
album:
Use a perfectly tuned acoustic for this song
A: 002220
E: 022100
D: 000232
Aadd9: 002200
G: 320003
A9: 002000
Dear Yoko by John Lennon:
[A]Even after all these [E]years
I m[D]iss you when you're not [E]here
I w[D]ish you were here, my [E]dear [A]Yo[Aadd9]ko[A]
[A]Even if it's just a [E]day
I [D]miss you when you're [E]away
I [D]wish you were here to[E]day, dear Y[A]ok[Aadd9]o[A]
(continue chord pattern for remaining verses)
Even if it's just one night
I miss you and it don't feel right
I wish you were here tonight, dear Yoko
Even if it's just one hour
I wilt just like a faded flower
Ain't nothing in the world like our love, dear Yoko
[G]Oh, [D] Yoko[A][A9][A]
[G]Never,never,never,never,[D]ever gonna let you go[A][A9][A]
[G]Oh, [D] Yoko[A][A9][A]
[G]Never,never,never,never,[D]ever gonna let you go[A][Aadd9][A]
(continue verse chord pattern)
Even when I'm miles at sea
and nowhere is the place to be
your spirit's watching over me, dear Yoko
Even when I watch T.V.
there's a hole where you're supposed to be
There's nobody lying next to me, dear Yoko
Even after all this time
I miss you like the sun don't shine
Without you, I'm a one track mind, dear Yoko
After all is really said and done
The two of us are really one
The gods have really smiled upon our love, dear Yoko
O[G]h, [D] Yoko[A][A9][A]
[G]Never,never,never,never,[D]ever gonna let you go[A][A9][A]
[G]Oh, [D] Yoko[A][A9][A]
[G]Never,never,never,never,[D]ever gonna let you go[A][Aadd9][A]
[A] [E] [D] [E] [D] [E] [A][A9][A]
O[G]h, [D] Yoko[A][A9][A]
[G]Never,never,never,never,[D]ever gonna let you go[A][A9][A]
[G]Oh, [D] Yoko[A][A9][A]
[G]Never,never,never,never,[D]ever gonna let you go[A][A9][A]
