This is my arrangement of "Strawberry Fields Forever," the Beatles' 1967 single (and one of my Beatles favorites).
This arrangement is heavily inspired by Laurence Juber's arrangement from his fantastic "LJ Plays the Beatles" album, but I believe he plays that one in an open tuning, and open tunings frighten me.

I decided to mess around with this song and somehow it became this. A weird open tuning and lots of picking.
I think it turned out allright. It doesn't stray too far from the actual song...maybe...
Let me know what you think.
