YELLOW SUBMARINE
Lennon and McCartney
arr. by Noam Mohr (mohr@student.physics.upenn.edu)

I made this version of Yellow Submarine from the way the
piano version sounded in The Complete Beatles, I have no
idea how similar it is to the original version. But it
works for me!

All the notes and chords that fall on the off beat should
have a dotted rhythm, i.e. instead of two eighth notes play
a dotted eighth note and a sixteenth note. If you've ever
heard the song this rhythm should be obvious. Make sure you
look for the ^ marks to show the beats, don't go by the
spacing.

I haven't been able to come up with a good rhythm for the
chorus, so I encourage you to be creative rather than
following my boring strum pattern.
