Bernie Hamburger here of Hamburg Guitar and I'm here to show you how to play another Beatles song,
Guitar Parts, and this one is called Octopus's Garden.
I'm going to show it to you section by
section.
First of all, we're going to play along with the intro licks at the very beginning of
the song.
So here goes.
[C#]
[E]
[B] [E] I like the beat.
[Em]
Okay, so let's do that again.
Starts here, 9th fret D
string.
[G#] [B]
[F#]
[E] [F#]
[E] [B]
[C#]
[B] So [A] that's the opening lick to Octopus's Garden.
[G] Now I'm going to move to the section
that's after the first [N] verse that has just a small guitar lick, but it's got to be in there.
So let me see if I [G#] can find it here.
[B] I [E]
like the [D#] beat.
[C#m] Under the sea.
[A] In an [B] octopus's garden.
[E] In
a sea.
Okay, [G] now what that is, is the E and G string on the [F#] 9th fret only, and you slide it
down [Em] to the 4th fret.
[E] Alright, okay [Em] now we're going to move over to the lead solo [F] and I'll
show you how that's played here in a second.
Let me get that all [E] cued up.

[A] [B] [E]
[F#] [C]
[Dm] [E]
[Am] [F#] [C]
[D] [C]
[B] [E] Alright, so it starts here on the 12th fret with the index [G] finger on the B string.
[E] Middle finger G string to the 13th fret.
It slides [G] in.
[G] [A] [C#] [Em]
That's the wrong note.
[Dm]
[B] [Em]
Yeah, [G] it's hard for me to play slowly [C] without making a mistake because I'm
so used to doing it in real time, but I'll do it again.
[G] [F#] [C#]
[A]
[Em] [B] [B] [Em]
[A]
[F#] I added that extra note at the end.
So I'll break it down again real slow.
[C]
[F#] [E] [C#]
[A] [Em]
[A] [B] [Em]
[A]
[E] Alright, so that's the guitar solo.
[F#] Now let's move a little
further to the licks [B] before the ending of the song and then the ending [G#] licks.
Let's cue it up here.
