5 out of 5 stars It's got it all   July 16, 2008
Here it is in one complete book all of The Beatles songs with the correct chords. This is a nice book with easy to read type and probably every song you ever wanted to know by The Beatles. The only minus is there isn't ant tab for the lead parts, but that's easy enough to get anywhere. Recommend for anyone that wants to learn chord structures by The Beatles.


5 out of 5 stars Wow... more songs than I ever imagined!   July 12, 2008
This book has everything.... every song ever written by The Beatles. I am so excited to get started learning some of my favorite songs on my guitar. Though I'm not necessarily a Beatles Fan, though I have always appreciated their music, I had to have this book after seeing the movie "Across the Universe". It was like I heard the words for the first time and realized also for the first time that The Beatles were way ahead of their time in music and vision. I highly recommend this book.


4 out of 5 stars suprisingly good   May 25, 2008
  1 out of 1 found this review helpful

I have several Beatles guitar books, most of which fall into two categories: 1) They are way beyond my level (I consider myself to be an intermediate level guitarist) or 2) They books don't use the right chords, so the songs sound just a little off. This book works well for strumming along with your favorite Beatle tunes. It contains every Beatle tune that I am familiar with plus many others. My only criticism is that the book is small and it is impossible to keep the book open to any particular page.


5 out of 5 stars Must Have for Beatles Lovers   May 14, 2008
The title of this book says it all...Complete Chord Songbook. If you love the Beatles and aspire to play their music on the guitar, I would highly recommend this book to you. If you know basic chords, you will be able to play many of the songs as soon as you pick it up. If not, each song has chord diagrams so you can easily figure them out. I can't speak for the professional musician, but if you want to play the Beatles, this is the only book you need to purchase.


5 out of 5 stars Never Enough Time   May 14, 2008
There is never enough time to go through this book... The Beatles Complete Chord Songbook is probably the best addition to anyone's piano bench (though it will likely not be put away there) or guitar book shelf. Obviously, since it is a chord book, not a tablature book, you won't find how to play the intricates like "Blackbird" or "Here Comes the Sun," (I think it warns you of this in the foreword), nor will you find any notes on a staff. I actually prefer the guitar chord boxes even though I've been playing it on piano because it just saves paper and is easier to look at. It is so much fun to go through and play any song that I want to, and play it right. This book is perfect for sing-alongs, parties, &c. I love you Beatles!
