  Subject: TAB:"Somebody" by Aerosmith

  

          I'm posting most of the rhythm parts to this song. As with all my

  posts, this could be very wrong because I have no other references but the

  cd and my head. Also as with all my other posts, in spite of the fact that

  it could be very wrong, it sounds pretty accurate or else I wouldn't be

  posting it. And finally, as with all my other posts, corrections, comments

  and questions are welcome at meunier.1@osu.edu  

  

                     "Somebody"(Tyler/Emspack)

  

  Performed by Aerosmith on "Aerosmith"(1973)

  Transcribed by Bryson Meunier

  

  rhy.fig.1-

  

     E---------------------------------------------------|

     B---------------------------------------------------|

     G---------------------------------------------------|

     D---------------------------------------------------|

     A----2--2--4----2--4--2--2---4----------------------|

     E----0--0--0----0--0--0--0---0--2---2--3-3--4-4-----|

  This riff changes slightly, sometimes  changing to (2  3  4) instead of (2 3

  3  4 4). When the verse comes in, play this:

     rhy.fig.2-

      I need a lady not somebody shady...

     E---------------------------------------------------|

     B------2--------------------------------------------|

     G------2-------(3x)---------------------------------|

     D------2--------------------------------------------|

     A---------------------------------------------------|

     E----------------------0---3---0---3----------------|

  (rhy.fig.1))

  The words fit into the music like this:

          

          I need a lady not somebody shady

          need someone to be close to 

          somebody cozy not somebody nosy 

          help me see my whole day through

          F#5

          someone to share the load

          A5

          somebody to walk the road I live on...live!(rhy.fig.1)

     

  Basic chords for this part go like this:

      fill 1-

         F#5   A5       live on...live

     E---------------------------------------------------|

     B---------------------------------------------------|

     G-------------------9--9-----9---------------------|

     D---4-----7---------9--9-----9---------------------|

     A---4-----7---------7--7-----7---------------------|

     E---2-----5-----------------------------------------|

          (rhy.fig.2)

  

          Good Lord send me, good lord mend me

          send me down someone for me

          said I won't be choosy you could send me a floozy

          send me anybody you please

          F#5                   

          Somebody say you will

          A5

          Somebody further still

          G5           B5

          Somebody some-somebody for me(fill 1)

      fill 2-   D5       A                E

     E---------------------------------------------------|

     B-------------------2-------------------------------|

     G----9----7--7------2-------------------------------|

     D----9----7--7------2----------------2--------------|

     A----7----5--5-----------------------2--------------|

     E-------------------------3---2---0--0--------------|

          Now won't you send me somebody

  (repeat twice)

     

  I used two barre chords in this transcription without tabbing them. Here

  they are for those who don't know:

        B5   G5

     E-------------|

     B-------------|

     G---4---------|

     D---4----5----|

     A---2----5----|

     E--------3----|

  

     (guitar solo(by the way, anyone who wants to post the solo is more than

  welcome))

       

          (rhy.fig.1)

          yeah somebody

          won't you send me somebody

          now won't you send me somebody

  

          (rhy.fig.2)

          well,call for somebody scream loud and bloody

          call woman woman come on to me

          save for tomorrow share all your sorrow

          misery enjoys company(yes it does,yes it does)

  

  The song ends with a variation of fill 1 if I remember correctly. Although

  even if it doesn't, it shouldn't be too hard to figure out with the chords

  that I've posted here.

  Again, comments, questions and corrections are welcome at meunier.1@osu.edu

  Enjoy the post.
