Blue Jay Way by Beatles
Submitted by Andy Lakin

The bass line is pretty simple and matches the rhythm of the lyrics

G|---0-------3-----6-----3-------4-------------------------------|

E|------------------------------------------------------------------|
   There’s a fog upon L.A.

G|---0-------3-----6-----3-------4-------------------------------|
D|------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|------------------------------------------------------------------|
   And my friends have lost their way

G|---0-------3-----6-----6--------0-----3-------6--------------|
D|------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|------------------------------------------------------------------|
   We'll be over soon they said

G|---3-------6-----9-----6-----3----9----7----------------------|
D|------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|-------------------------------------------------------|
   Now they've lost themselves instead.

    Please don’t be long

G|---0--3--2--0--------------------------------------------------|
D|------------------3--2-------------------------------------------|
A|------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|------------------------------------------------------|
    For I may be asleep

G|---0-------3-----6-----3-------4-------------------------------|
D|------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|-------------------------------------------------------|
   Now it only goes to show

G|---0-------3-----6-----3-------4-------------------------------|
D|------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|-------------------------------------------------------|
   And I told them where to go

G|---0-------3-----6-----3-------6-------------------------------|
D|------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|-------------------------------------------------------|
   Ask a policeman on the street

G|---3-------6-----9-----6-----3----9----7----------------------|
D|------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|-------------------------------------------------------|
   There's so many there to meet.

G|---0-------3-----6-----3-------4-------------------------------|
D|------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|------------------------------------------------------------------|
   And I'd really like to go

G|---0-------3-----6-----3-------4-------------------------------|
