Subject: TAB:"When I Needed You" by Aerosmith
Okay, so I know this isn't really an Aerosmith song, per se.
Nonetheless, it was written by Steven Tyler and it is included in an
Aerosmith box set. I think those are good enough reasons for putting it in
the Aerosmith section of OLGA instead of starting a new file for "Chain
Reaction." Anyway, here it is, like it or not.
This should be pretty accurate. If you don't think so, send
corrections to meunier.1@osu.edu Comments and questions are also welcome.
Have fun with it.
"I can't ever forget how excited I was about being in an actual recording
band. It was a total dream come true. The other side of it is that it's a
pretty lame song. I never got a cent. So that was my first taste of
'shysterism.'"
-Steven Tyler

When I needed you
To be my girl
When I needed you
A5
To give me a whirl
chorus-
G5
When I wanted all you had
(main riff)
And what you gave me turned out all bad
C5 A Bb5 C5 D5
I needed all your love
