Tabbed by:refewz

Tuning: Open D (DADF#AD)
I've tabbed out James' two slide guitar solos in I Need You. There are some
sections during the verses not included here, but they just contain more
guitar noodling which is similar to the playing found in the solos. The
chord progression follows the 8-bar blues pattern as opposed to the usual
12-bar progression.
