The Beatles - Ticket to Ride

[Verse 1]

I think I'm gonna be sad, I think it's today, yeah
The girl that's driving me mad is going away
1 \ 1(sus2) \ | 1 \ 1(sus2) \ | 1 \ 1(sus2) \ | 1 \ 1(sus2) \ |
1 \ 1(sus2) \ | 1 \ 1(sus2) \ | 2m \ \ \ | 5 \ \ \ |

[Chorus 1]

She's got a ticket to ride
She's got a ticket to ride
She's got a ticket to ride, but she don't care
6m \ \ \ | 4 \ \ \ | 6m \ \ \ | b7 . . . |
6m \ \ \ | 5 \ \ \ | 1 \ 1(sus2) \ | 1 \ 1(sus2) \ |

[Verse 2]

She said that living with me is bringing her down, yeah
She would never be free when I was around
1 \ 1(sus2) \ | 1 \ 1(sus2) \ | 1 \ 1(sus2) \ | 1 \ 1(sus2) \ |
1 \ 1(sus2) \ | 1 \ 1(sus2) \ | 2m \ \ \ | 5 \ \ \ |

[Chorus 2]

She's got a ticket to ride
She's got a ticket to ride
She's got a ticket to ride, but she don't care
6m \ \ \ | 4 \ \ \ | 6m \ \ \ | b7 . . . |
6m \ \ \ | 5 \ \ \ | 1 \ 1(sus2) \ | 1 \ 1(sus2) \ |

[Bridge 1]

I don't know why she's riding so high
She ought to think twice, she ought to do right by me
Before she gets to saying goodbye
She ought to think twice, she ought to do right by me
4 \ \ \ | 4 \ \ \ | 4 \ \ \ | 5 \ \ \ |

1 \ 1(sus2) \ | 1 \ 1(sus2) \ | 2m \ \ \ | 5 \ \ \ |

[Chorus 3]

Oh, she's got a ticket to ride
She's got a ticket to ride
She's got a ticket to ride, but she don't care

[Verse 4]

She said that living with me was bringing her down, yeah
For she would never be free when I was around

My baby don't care
My baby don't care
My baby don't care
My baby don't care
My baby don't care
My baby don't care
