Ask Me Why - Beatles - Guitar Lessonby Beatles

Ask Me Why is mostly a John Lennon tune that was the B-side of their second single, Ask Me Why. The progression uses quite a few chords, most from the key of E, many chords from nearby keys, and an augmented chord to really make things interesting.

The strumming is very basic, but most of the chords are barre chords, so you need to be comfortable with the 'E' and 'A' families to play this easily. The lesson also briefly covers how to incorporate the opening bass notes with George's lead-in chords to complete the piece.
