Paperback Writer
!		(Lennon/McCartney)

!		I prefer to play the opening like this:
		[e: -------------------------------------------------------------------|
		B: -------------------------------------------------------------------|
		G: -------------------------------------------------------------------|
		D: ---------5-----3---------------------------------------------------|
		A: ---3--5--------------3-----3--5------------------------------------|
		E: 3-----------3-----3-----3------------------------------------------|]!!

!		It sounds better than the open strings in the previous posting. Just
		a thought...

		C

-

!		This is the intro bit:
		[e----------------v-----------------v
		B----------------v-----------------v
		G-------0--------v-----------------v
		D---0-3-----0-3--v---------0---3---v
		A----------------v---3-------------v
		E-3--------------v-3-----3---------v]!!

!		And the complete lyrics & chords:

		Paperback writer...

		Dear Sir or Madam, will you read my book?
		It took me years to write, will you take a look
		It's based on a novel by a man named Lear
		                                             C
		And I need a job so I want to be a paperback writer
		          G7
		Paperback writer

		G7
		It's a dirty story of a dirty man
		And his clinging wife doesn't understand
		His son is working for the Daily Mail
		                                                 C
		It's a steady job but he wants to be a paperback writer
		          G7
		Paperback writer

		G7
		It's a thousand pages, give or take a few
		I'll be writing more in a week or two
		I can make it longer if you like the style
		                                                    C
		I can change it 'round and I want to be a paperback writer
		          G7
		Paperback writer

		G7
		If you really like it you can have the rights
		It could make a milion for you overnight
		If you must return it you can send it here
		                                                C
		But I need a break and I want to be a paperback writer
		          G7
		Paperback writer

		Dear Sir or Madam, will you read my book?
		It took me years to write, will you take a look?
		Based on a novel by a man named Lear
		And I need a job, so I want to be a paperback writer,
		Paperback writer.

		It's the dirty story of a dirty man
		And his clinging wife doesn't understand.
		His son is working for the Daily Mail,
		It's a steady job but he wants to be a paperback writer,
		Paperback writer.

		It's a thousand pages, give or take a few,
		I'll be writing more in a week or two.
		I can make it longer if you like the style,
		I can change it round and I want to be a paperback writer,
		Paperback writer.

		If you really like it you can have the rights,
		It could make a million for you overnight.
		If you must return it, you can send it here
		But I need a break and I want to be a paperback writer,
