Eleanor Rigby Lennon/McCartney, 1966 YouTube video tutorial: http://youtu.be/NT2WfucCyg0
[DELIBERATE: D-PLUCK
-D-PLUCK
]
VERSE 1:
Eleanor Rigby, picks up the rice
In the church where a wedding has been
Lives in a dream Waits at the window, wearing the face
That she keeps in a jar by the door
Who is it for?
VERSE 2: Am Father McKenzie, writing the words F Of a sermon that no one will hear Am No one comes near
Look at him working, darning his socks F In the night when there’s nobody there Am What does he care?
VERSE 3: Am Eleanor Rigby died in the church F And was buried along with her name Am Nobody came
Father McKenzie, wiping the dirt F From his hands as he walks from the grave Am No one was saved
OUTRO: Am
INTRO:
Ah, look at all the lonely people
Ah, look at all the lonely people
CHORUS:
All the lonely people,
where do they all come from?
All the lonely people,
where do they all belong?

Achy Breaky Heart Don Von Tress, 1991 (Billy Ray Cyrus, 1992) YouTube video tutorial: http://youtu.be/7KHeeWbRZlU
VERSE 1: You can tell the world - you never was my girl You can burn my clothes - when I’m gone
Oh, you can tell your friends - just what a fool I've been And laugh and joke about me on the phone
You can tell my arms - go back onto the farm You can tell my feet to hit the floor
Or you can tell my lips - to tell my fingertips They won't be reaching out for you no more
VERSE 2:
You can tell your ma - I moved to Arkansas
Or you can tell your dog to bite my leg
Go tell your brother Cliff - whose fist can tear my lip
He never really liked me anyway
Or tell your Aunt Louise - tell anything you please
My self already knows I'm not ok
And you can tell my eyes - to watch out for my mind
It might be walkin' out on me today
INTRO: [EVEN STRUM: D-DUDUDU] | X X X X | X X X X | X X X X | X X X X|
CHORUS: Don't tell my heart - my achy breaky heart I just - don't - think he'd understand
And if you tell my heart - my achy breaky heart He might - blow - up and kill this man
Oooooooohhhhhhhh!
