C6 TAB Lapsteel Nowhere Man - Beatles

Post by Bert Farroach »

Hi lapsteelers,

Beatles-time again! :D
A nice rather straight song from Rubber Soul, written by John Lennon,
developing lyrics that were more than 'She loves you' and 'yeah yeah yeah'.
In the key of E, same as the Beatles played in.
My version on YouTube is here:

If you wanna give it a try, just email me, and I'll send you the 3-page PDF
with the mp3 backingtrack, for free of course!
Take care with the virus, better be a "nowhere" man or woman for the weeks to come. :?

Hi Bert, I have almost all Beatle albums since 1970. Great song, course you always choose some "very" fine songs! You are such a great source for some of us who read tab, and are amateur's like me. Guess what I'll be requesting next? Your one of a kind, thank you for providing us with new songs!

This is a great cover. Thanks to you I have lots of C6 songs to keep me busy! I'll be contacting you about the tabs and backing track. Thanks so much again,

I started playing lap steel in September 2017. It's already been a long strange ride! I do keep learning! My primary guitar interests these days are Weissenborn with Open D and my lap steels with C6.

Thanks, Farroach! This Nowhere Man has got some great slants. Perfect for what I need to learn. Check out bar #6, holding one note while slanting thru three more... sounds great when it's played in tune, otherwise, for the first 100 times, it sounds quite horrible!

Thanks again!

Thank you all! I come to these slants avoiding open strings, I guess. . :wink:
In the new post If I loved You, you'll find the same idea in bar 16
(just visible, but email me if you want the whole tab).
Take care !
