September In The Rain chords by The Beatles
Guitar chords with lyrics
Tuning: Standard The Beatles September in the Rain (1962) (Harry Warren/Al Dubin) From the Decca audition tapes (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Beatles%27_Decca_audition) Transcribed in friendly G. In order to match the original, either transpose this tab up 1 semi-tone to Ab/Ab or use one of those cute ukulele capos on the 1st fret. I added a 2nd version for beginners which leaves out the key change.
