The Beatles – A Hard Day’s Night – Acoustic Guitar Lesson

“A Hard Day’s Night” is the title track to the Beatles first movie of the same name which was released in 1964.

According to Ringo during a 1964 interview the title to the song was taken from an expression he used to say.

“”We went to do a job, and we’d worked all day and we happened to work all night. I came up still thinking it was day I suppose, and I said, ‘It’s been a hard day…’ and I looked around and saw it was dark so I said, ‘Night!’ So we came to ‘A Hard Day’s Night.’”

The song is in the key of G and uses open chords for the most part. I have also included a backing track. A fun song to play.
