Song

These chords work great with me. I normally pick them like it's done
in the song but you could strum them too, I guess.
*Capo on 2nd fret to match the Beatles' recording.

Verse

Half of what I say is meaningless 
But I say it just to reach you, Juli-a
Julia, Julia, ocean child, calls me
So I sing a song of love, Juli-a
Julia, seashell eyes, windy smile, calls me
So I sing a song of love, Ju-ulia 

Bridge

Her hair of floating sky is shimmering, glimmering,
In the sun  
0-x-2-0-1-0 C/E = Em(b6)

Verse

Julia, Julia, morning moon, touch me
So I sing a song of love, Ju-ulia 
When I cannot sing my heart  
C Am7 Em G (C)
I can only speak my mind, Ju-ulia
Julia, sleeping sand, silent cloud, touch me
C Am7 Em G (C)
So I sing a song of love, Ju-ulia
mmm...mmmmm...mmm ...calls me
So I sing a song of love for Julia, Julia, Ju-ulia
