Good one this, nice easy solo too. I had a good search to make sure it wasn't already posted and couldn'y find it. So lets hope its not a duplicate.

I think the original was done in A but I wouldn't swear to that.

C
She's just the girl for me and I want all the world to see we've met
C D G

Had it been another day I might have looked the other way and
Em Em C
I'd have never been aware, but as it is, I'll dream of her tonight

D C G C G
Falling yes I am falling and she keeps calling me back again.

I have never known the like of this I've been alone and I have
Em C
Missed things and kept out of sight but other girls were never quite like this

Thanks for the great song from my favorite Beatle's album Rubber Soul.

This is a great song. :D

Got any advice on a strum pattern? It sounds like there are strikes overlaying the actual struming, but I'm not too good at this stuff yet.

That is amazing. I never owned the album Help so I know I didn't hear it there. Also, I just looked up all the lyrics for Rubber Soul and they had a song called What Goes On that I have never heard even once. I absolutely do not know this song.

Is it possible the album was different in the States? It has to be, because I am sure this song was on my Rubber Soul album that I played everyday for years. By far my favorite Beatles album, but I loved them all.

Ah, that's it! Look I found it on this site. I knew I wasn't going crazy. :D

The U.K. and U.S. albums have slightly different track listings. The original CD release used the U.K. versions, but they're now releasing the U.S. versions in multi volumed boxed sets (The Capitol Albums).

You are right Rodders, the Beatles did it in the key of A so I capo the 2nd fret to play with the CD (or at least try to!)

I seem to recall that although the songwriting credits on "What Goes On" went to Ringo (who sang it), it was primarily a Lennon/McCartny composition . . . Yeah, we got cheated on the albums in the States. EMI would always put a dozen or more tracks on the UK version. But its subsidiary, Capitol Records, would only put 9-10 on an LP in the U.S. so they could squeeze out an extra album or two over time. Reportedly, the Beatles were very cheesed off at this money grab by the corporation. One story had it that the infamous "butcher cover" on the Yesterday and Today album was a protest against the "carving up" of their work, and their treatment as pieces of meat. Maybe, maybe not. But it's a good story. (By the way, I was lucky enough to get a "Butcher" cover album when it came out!! It's still a prized possession!!)
