Subject: "If I Needed Someone" (The Beatles)
George Harrison's finest unsung moment. A very underrated song that is a
brilliant example of pop perfection, circa 1965. They don't make 'em like this
any more. To play it, use a capo at the 7th fret. Of course, to make it sound
right, you'll need a 12-string (preferably Rickenbacker, of course), but I've
found that I can achieve a passably similar effect by either turning on the
chorus just enough that I hear two separate sounds or setting my delay pedal
long enough to hear two separate sounds. Either way, ya gotta jangle, or it
won't sound right.
I think John Lennon may be playing first position chords throughout, so I'll
write the chord names above the TAB and I'll draw the shapes at the end. I
can't tell exactly what the rhythm is for this part, but as long as it's not
overdone, it should be fine.
(Even though the capo is at the 7th fret, I'm writing this as if it were the
nut - i. e. `0' in the tab will correspond to the 7th fret. Just add 7 to
everything if it gets too confusing.)

John Lennon's chords: (all played 1st position - WITHOUT A CAPO)

Rhythmically, this should be okay. I transcribed this mostly on my own (I got
chord changes and forms and lyrics from a book, but all of the embellishments
such as capo placement and music beyond standard chording was my own doing), so
there are going to be some things that aren't quite right. For instance,
obviously, if both guitars stand still during the G/A chord, things are going
to be pretty boring, so there is a rhythm pattern beyond what I have, I just
haven't pegged it down precisely. Slight arpeggiations seem to work fine here.
I recently listened to this album again and was blown away by this song. A
true masterpiece, especially the solo. I wish that I could transcribe the
incredible vocal harmonies; alas, there's no way. Still, this should be
plenty. Happy playing!

Marc does a great job with this transcription. I did notice that he accidentally mislabeled some chords in a few places, though. His E minor is actually an A minor, and his B minor is really an E minor. He does label them correctly under the section titled в^А^ЬJohn Lennonв^А^Щs chords.в^А^Э Also, Iв^А^Щm hearing a straight A and G where he hears an A7 and an A/G, respectively, but this could be because Iв^А^Щm listening to the live George Harrison solo version, which has a much bigger band with a lot more layers of sound.
