Everly Brothers
Love Her (1963)
(Barry Mann/Cynthia Weil)
A very beautiful song; not well known, though. Strings, bass, acoustic and
electric guitars blend,
creating multi-layered chords that are hard to reproduce with just one guitar. The voicings
suggested below attempt to recreate the main lines.
[Capo 3rd fret]
Intro: | Gadd9 | G[*1] | G6/add9 | G[*2] |
Love her And tell her each day
That girl needs to know, tell her so
Tell her everything I could have said
Like she's one, and she's sweet, and she's fine, ooooh
Love her Like I should have
G G/f# Em Em/D C D(no3rd) G
done
Hold her and show her you care
When her world is blue see her through
Every time that she needs you be there
By her side, be the guide that I couldn't be
And love her
G/f#
Love her for me
Please love her
Gadd9 G[*1] G6/add9 G[*2] Gadd9 G[*1]
Love her for me
