I've Just Seen A Face

Ive Just Seen a Face was written by Paul McCartney (credited to Lennon–McCartney) and is noted for its bluegrass influence.

The lyrics describe a romantic encounter that is so striking it leaves the narrator love-struck at first sight. The song is notable for its absence of a traditional chorus and for its r ... apid chord progression. See more [+]
