So I Need You 3 Doors Down
Song: So I Need You (Acoustic)
Album: The Better Life
Tabbed By: Chris Simmons
***********************************************************************
***********************************************************************
I tabbed this using the original so i need you acoustic tab on UG. I
would credit the person who did it but they were not registered. I
used their tab making of this and it was very helpfull. As there was no
name I have included the original tab at the bottom of this tab as some
sort of credit.
***********************************************************************
***********************************************************************
I have tabbed a simple version of the song mainly chords. I think it's
pretty accurate. I have tried to tab rhythm but forgive me if it's not
spot on. You can figure it out easy enough.

If you could step into my head...
and if you woke up in my bed...
Here there are 2 ways of playing it. Pick the melody or just play the
chords. The chords are right and i think the melody sounds right.

and i will say. (then to chorus...)
OR BY PICKING: (Strum quick between each chord to sound like the
recording)
[(C)] [(E)]
e|---------------------------------------| B|------1----1-------3-----3-------------| G|--------0---0--------0-----0-----------| D|----2-----2------2-----2---------------| A|--3------------------------------------| E|---------------0-----------------------|

There you have it! Bear in mind this is my first tab so there are certainly
mistakes. Any feedback JEEtoP@hotmail.com. The solo bit is slightly
improvised but you get the idea. If anyone has any improvements for it
please let me know. Thanks again for the previous tabs.

So I Need You Acoustic Tab by 3 Doors Down, www.Ultimate-Guitar.Com ·
This is the Tab....the first one i sent was totally wrong because i missed
the G string(whoops), but this one is correct I figured since there were no
other tabs done for this song, that I would give it a try. This tab is very
accurate, I'm still trying to figure out the verses and chorus, but the
intro is pretty damn cool itself!
