What are the exact notes George is playing while the words go:
"Won't you pleeeeease please help me."
You know that famous lick.
Was he using a flatpick or just his fingers?
Come on you guitar players!

From what I can see from live performances of Help! He used a pick.
-
He basically plays a downwards arpeggio. I'll be damned if I can figure out the chords tho.
Possibilities: C#m, D, E, F#m
Not much help, eh?
When they say 'won't you...' the main chording goes to A. I am not sure about the arpeggios but they END on A< leading one to believe they start on a higher chord and descend.
Arg.
I googled some various websites but they all post the exact same transcription from olga.org.
I'm gonna keep trying tho, now it's personal.

You might get an answer from a Beatle tribute-band site (maybe "1964's"?) - they normally have forums where you can speak to the band members and ask them questions.

Thanks.
I have to say I know the chords and how to play the song.
I'ts just that part of which I'm not sure how George played it.
Fingers or flatpick?

What ARE the chords (not to the song, just that descending bit you're asking about)?
