with the notable exceptions of
1) The Complete Scores --- white book by Hal Leonard which has most everything
and is at least good enough for a basis for e.g. playing in a group and tries to get
capo's and retunings correct
2) The Beatles to a Tee: http://www.to-a-tee.tv/
well researched, concerned with the guitar parts on about 1/3 of the beatle catalogue.
Goes into questions of tunings, variable speed recording etc..
3) This guy is doing a fantastic job at transcribing mostly the vocal harmonies of the
beatles but some other stuff too: http://www.youtube.com/user/imcarrying
All the rest is useless... Yellow submarine in Gb -- really?

Accidentally I found a book some minutes ago, again pardon for another
mail, ...
... it's "BEATLES Complete Guitar Edition". Too funny, I started
learning guitar using the same book's piano edition, I couldn't find it,
but I own it and IIRC the piano edition even for guitarists is much
better. Not only that the guitar version is missing more than the piano
version (same songs, but a completely different niveau), both are also
transposed different to the original songs.
"Yellow Submarine" is missing every "unneeded" chord for the guitar
edition, but IIRC all chords are written in the piano edition and for a
childish, lovely song like this, comping
[ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comping ] is a must.
OTOH, the original "Real Book" is amazing, but IMO the idea of such
books is to remember the texts and the "musical tendency". Names for
chords are very helpful, I like them, but they're just a link to how to
play a song, as notes and tabs are too, they don't say detailed how to
play a song.
I guess it was the OP who wrote the python script naming a combination
of notes by different CORRECT names (since the notes only don't provide
this information).
In the end a command line tool still will be airy-fairy.
