Blue Jay Way by Beatles

The bass line is pretty simple and matches the rhythm of the lyrics
G|---0-------3-----6-----3-------4-------------------------------|
D|------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|------------------------------------------------------------------|
There’s a fog upon L.A.
G|---0-------3-----6-----3-------4-------------------------------|
D|------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|------------------------------------------------------------------|
And my friends have lost their way
G|---0-------3-----6-----6--------0-----3-------6--------------|
D|------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|------------------------------------------------------------------|
We'll be over soon they said
G|---3-------6-----9-----6-----3----9----7----------------------|
D|------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|-------------------------------------------------------|
Now they've lost themselves instead.

For I may be asleep
G|---0-------3-----6-----3-------4-------------------------------|
D|------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|-------------------------------------------------------|
Now it only goes to show
G|---0-------3-----6-----3-------4-------------------------------|
D|------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|-------------------------------------------------------|
And I told them where to go
G|---0-------3-----6-----3-------6-------------------------------|
D|------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|-------------------------------------------------------|
Ask a policeman on the street
G|---3-------6-----9-----6-----3----9----7----------------------|
D|------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|-------------------------------------------------------|
There's so many there to meet.

And I'd really like to go
G|---0-------3-----6-----3-------4-------------------------------|
