                Be Here Now – George Harrison
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Written by: George Harrison
From: "Living In The Material World" (1973)
Tabbed by: maguri
Tuning: Open G6 / E-G-D-G-B-e + capo 2nd fret
Harrison uses a special form of Open G (?) on this recording; it's not 
so difficult to do, though: Just tune down the 5th (A) string down to G. 
If you want to play the song as one hears it on his recording, this 
tuning is mandatory.
If you don't want to take the trouble of re-tuning , transpose this 
chord sheet +2 to the original key of A; I added some voicings for 
this key, too
