As you may have guessed, this is just a blues song so I won't
bother with the main body of the song - it's just A D and E.
It does have a nice little intro on acoustic though :
I think you need a capo for this one - on the 3rd or 4th fret.

"For You Blue" is a Beatles song written by George Harrison for his wife Pattie Boyd, who would be the subject of many of his love songs, including "It's All Too Much".
"For You Blue" was the B-side to "The Long and Winding Road" (in the U.S.) and the eleventh track on The Beatles' final LP release, Let It Be. "For You Blue" was listed with "The Long and Winding Road" as a double-sided hit when the single hit number one on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 in 1970.
The song features John Lennon playing lap steel guitar with a shotgun shell as shown in the Let It Be movie. Harrison makes a few spoken comments during the song, including, "Go, Johnny, go" during Lennon's solo, and "Elmore James got nothing on this baby", perhaps referring to James' song "Madison Blues" which is similar to "For You Blue".
The song's working title was "George's Blues (Because You're Sweet and Lovely)" when it was recorded on 25 January 1969. It was renamed sometime between 10 March and 28 May when it was listed as "For You Blue" on the final mix for the unreleased Get Back album. When Phil Spector remixed the song for inclusion on the Let It Be album, he added an introduction by Lennon, "The Queen says no to pot-smoking FBI members." This comment was edited in from dialog recorded at Twickenham Studios in early January, 1969, long before "For You Blue" was recorded.
This song was part of the set during his Dark Horse Tour of North America in 1974.
On 29 November 2002, Paul McCartney sang this song at the Concert for George, a memorial concert for Harrison held on the first anniversary of his death.
Recorded Apple Studios
25 January 1969
Lyrics:
Because you're sweet and lovely girl, I love you
Because you're sweet and lovely girl, It's true
I love you more that ever girl, I do
I want you in the morning girl, I love you
I want you at the moment, I feel blue
I'm living every moment girl, for you
Walk, walk cat walk
Go Johnny go
Same ole 12-bar blues
(Elmore James go nothin' on this baby)
I loved you from the moment I saw you
You looket at me, that's all you had to do
I feel it now I hope you feel it too
I'm having the blues
