I Want You Lennon/McCartney Tabbed by Marc Hertzberg (hertzberg@cornmuffin.com) of HELP! (cornmuffin.com/help) Intro: Dm F6 E7-9 -|-----------1-----------------1-----------------1------ -|--------3-----3-----------3-----3-----------3--------- -|-----2-----------2-----2-----------2-----1------------ -|--0-----------------4-----------------2--------------- -|------------------------------------------------------ -|------------------------------------------------------ Bb A+ -|-----------------1-----------------1------------------ -|--------------3-----------------2--------------------- -|-----------3-----------------2------------------------ -|-----------------------0------------------------------ -|--3--2--1-----------3-----0--------------------------- -|------------------------------------------------------ Let the notes of each chord ring until the chord change happens (except for the two lead-in notes before the Bb and A+ chords). It helps to have a large number of guitar players playing this riff in unison. ;^) The trick I use to play this smoothly is as follows: As you are playing the first three notes of the F6 chord, adjust your hand so that you are doing a full barre with the first finger across the first fret. Hold this barre until the open D string just before the A+ chord. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tab Special Notations: ----0---- play the open string ('fret zero') ----5---- play fret five ----5~--- play fret five with vibrato ---5/7--- play fret five, slide up to fret seven ---7\5--- play fret seven, slide down to fret five --8b(9)-- play fret eight, bend the string (at fret eight) to reach the pitch of fret nine --b(9)8-- play fret eight already bent to the pitch of fret nine, unbending until it reaches the normal pitch of fret eight ----h7--- hammer-on to fret seven ----p5--- pull-off to fret five ---/7---- slide up to fret 7 (the starting fret of the slide is undefined, judge by ear) ---15\--- play fret 15, slide down (the ending fret of the slide is undefined, judge by ear) ---0h3--- play the open string and immediately hammer-on to fret three ---7p5--- play fret seven and immediately pull-off to fret five
