[Intro]
CEFG
    x2
[Verse 1]
C                 E               F           G        C E F G
  And if there's someone you can live without, then do so.
C                E               F          G         C     E F G
  And if there's someone you can just shove out; well do so.
[Chorus]
C          E          F     G
  You can be my Yoko Ono
C         E             F      G
  You can follow me wherever I   go
C        E
  Be my, be my, Be my,
F          G           C E F G
Be my Yoko Ono. oh ooh oh
[Verse 2]
C              E            F             G                 C E F G
  Oh, isn't it beautiful to see two people so much in love?
C            E              F                G                C E F G
  Barenaked as two virgins hand in hand and hand and hand in love.
C                   E           F               G              C     E F G
  But now that I'm far away it doesn't seem to me to be such a pain.
C              E              F               G                  C  E F G
  To have you hanging off my ankle like some kind of ball and chain.
[Chorus]
C         E          F     G
  You can be my Yoko Ono
C         E             F      G
  You can follow me wherever I   go
C        E
  Be my, be my, Be my,
F          G
Be my Yoko Ono.
[Bridge]
F      G               C                    Am
Oh no, here we go, our life is just one big pun.
F     G         C           E7      E7
                             (strum  once)   
Oh no, here we go as Yoko sings

  I know that when I say this,   I may be stepping on pins and needles;
    C            E                F
But I don't like all these people slagging her for 
G               C       E F                   G
breaking up the Beatles.   (Don't blame it on Yokey!)
          C              E              F              G                C      E F G
I mean if I was John and you were Yoko, I would gladly give up musical genius,
C          E              F       G         C       E F G
  just to have you as my very own, personal Venus.
(Hit It!) 
[Chorus]
C         E          F     G
  You can be my Yoko Ono
C          E            F      G
  You can follow me wherever I   go
C        E
  Be my, be my, Be my,
F         G
                      N.C.
Be my Yoko Ono. oh ooh oh  (ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh)

Be my, be my, be my, be my 
F          G
Be my Yoko Ono, woah
