Everybody Wants You
by Billy Squier


This is *NOT* correct to the record, but I am the only guitarist
in our band, so fullness of sound is important.  The way Bill S.
plays it is higher in pitch (same key) but doesn't come off well
live that way.  You can transpose it up an octave easily if you
want to be closer to the recorded version.

Here is how *I* do it, and it packs the dance floor everytime:

_______________________________________________________
_______________________________________________________

_______________________________________________________
_______________________________________________________
_______________________________________________________
_______________________________________________________
________________________________3______________________
___3____55____3____55_____3__5____5___3__55____________


At this point the bass and drummer join me for two more
of the above...

Singing begins--^
Verse 1:
You see em coming at you every night
strung on pretension, they fall for you at first sight
you know thier buisness-you think it's a bore
they make you restless-it's nothing you ain't seen before

***	Pretty repeatitive for awhile, then for the chorus, you'll be
	doing the "3 - 5 5" thingy as above; drop down to an E chord
	but you'll only be playing the open strings.  EX:

_______________________________________________________

___3____55____3____55_____3__5____5___3__55____________

_______0__|_____________________________________________
_______0__|_____________________________________________

__________|_____________________________________________
__________|_____________________________________________
__0_______|_____________________________________________

^---Hold an E chord but only play these notes (sort of a ghost chord)

Chorus:
	you ..
	never ..
	you ..

OK, now you have how that goes, to fill in "holes" or blank spots
in the music, I pick single strings while holding the chords
in the next part.   The first part is the same E as show directly
above, I'm just continueing it here:

_______0__|_______5__________________________5___________
_______0__|_______5________________________5__5__________
__________|_______7______________________7______7________
__________|_______7____________________7_________7_______
__________|_______5_Play like this: _5___________________
__0_______|______________________________________________


____5_____________________5______________________________
____5______________________5_____________________________
____6_______________________6____________________________
____7________________________7___________________________
____7__________________7_________________________________
____5__Played like: __5__________________________________

This may look weird, but try it, it fills the gaps because this
is a very beat oriented song, and you need something to carry the
tune when the singer isn't on the note.  You can play around with the
E chord too, based on the above.  You play the above twice... then
there is the "stop" where musicians stop and the singer goes:
"Everybody wants you...."  then back to the beginning sequence again.


Then for the bridge:  (hold a regular D chord and pick as shown, again
this isn't how it is on the record, but this is easy to play and fits
well in a live performance of the song)

__2__2____3__2|__________2__2____3__2________________________________
__3__3____3__3|__________3__3____3__3________________________________
__2__2____2__2|__________2__2____2__2________________________________
______________|______________________________________________________
______________|______________________________________________________
______________|______________________________________________________

Every body wants you    Everybody needs you

Repeat the above, then for the change: ("needs you , needs you")

__3__2____3__2___3__2____3__2________________________________
__3__3____3__3___3__3____3__3________________________________
__2__2____2__2___2__2____2__2________________________________

_____________________________________________________________
needs you needs you needs you needs you          ^----repeat to fit song

__2^(bend hard)___3____55____3____55_____3__5____5___3__55__

The legendary bend!


Then the piano note,  I play it like they do, but sometimes make the
"chicken cluck" note for fun:

_______________________________________________________
_____10___10____10____10___etc.________________________
_______________________________________________________
_______________________________________________________
_______________________________________________________


That should give you a good start and enough for you to play it your
way.
