Girlfriend – Wings
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Written by: Paul McCartney
From: "London Town" (1978)

Tabbed by: maguri
Tuning: Standard

A very beautiful song. The middle part, I called it "Solo/Instrumental" here,
seems somehow out of place, though. As I see it, McCartney wanted just a
little t o o much here. Michael Jackson covered the song on his "Off the Wall"
album (nice version, too!), turned the arrangement 100% pop and consequently
left out this part. I usually do so, too.

The first two bars of the verses alternate between G and G6, but the bass plays a
high "e" underneath, so the second chord could be interpreted as Em. Whatever
one calls the chord, I wouldn't suggest playing a standard Em shape (0-2-2-0-0-0)
because the "e" is just hinted at in the bass line and the guitars do not follow
this "hint" with a full blown chord change. To my ears, the G and the following
G6/Em chord have a lot in common, so I wouldn't highlight the subtle difference
too much by using a full Em voicing - the hint is enough to me (see my playing
suggestion for the verse pattern in the tab section below). I use the chord name
G6/E just to remind the player of this. Check out different options and settle
on the one that satisfies you most.
