If I Needed Someone  The Beatles

This song is a drone kept by the bass guitar while Lennon's rythm
and Harrison's picking change from A to G.
Lennon plays a syncopated rythm in low chords while Harrison,who
uses a capo on the seventh fret, plays a fingerpicking guitar riff
with an alternate A-E bass.
(D-A in the seventh fret capo position)
Be patient.It works and it sounds great.
Chords: A x02220 Remember that rythm guitar is played
G 320033 without a capo.
Em 022000
[F#7]Bm [242322]x24432
E 022100
Capo on 7th fret
