Subject: TAB: I Feel Fine (Lennon/McCartney) Disclaimer: The "I Feel Fine" riff is very difficult to make sound exactly authentic. Although I've tabbed out the basics here, there are subtleties which I haven't or may not have reflected, such as how notes ring, the exact sloppiness with which the riff should be played, etc. Marc I Feel Fine (Lennon/McCartney) The song begins with a single plucked "A" note, sounds like a bass guitar to me, which builds in feedback until the string is vibrating hard enough to cause a buzz.

This is the main riff of the song. In fact most of the song is just this riff played at the three different positions (G,C,D) The only different bit is : G Bm C D7 I'm so glad that she's my little girl G Bm C D7 She's so glad she's telling all the world The solo is over the G/C/D riff. Enjoy! Howard
