CAN'T BUY ME LOVE
(Lennon/McCartney)
A Hard Day's Night (1964)
Most of the C chords here can be played as C7, too. The 7th is there somewhere in the
Beatles' recording, but when played without a band with one guitar only, it might be 
a little too much. Some of the comments here suggest to play the 7th chords as barree
rather than their open versions. Might be a solution. It's probably a matter of taste,
whether to put it in or leave it out.

The story behind the song

"Can't Buy Me Love" explores the idea that while material possessions are fine, they can't acquire what truly matters. Paul McCartney wrote this song while the band was in Paris, under the pressure of their immense success. Despite its title, McCartney later reflected that perhaps it should have been "Can Buy Me Love," acknowledging the benefits that fame and money brought him. At its heart, the song playfully grapples with the age-old tension between wealth and genuine desire.
