Just What I Needed by Cars
CARS - Just What I Needed guitar tab
Just What I Needed
by the Cars
transcribed by Jeff Elkins
I'm not quite sure about any sort of intro - I guess
you need to listen to the album for that. Also, I have
to comment that when I really sat down and listened to
these songs (way back when), I was amazed that they used
so many "country" licks. Check out "Best Friends Girl"
- most of the band (excepting Mr. Orr the bass player)
came from Berkley College in Boston where they were
music/composition majors. TRIVIA: They started out as
a band in a small bar in Boston called The Rat.
See the end for performance notes.
* = fretted note
@ = add for full chord
The 5 on the chord really only indicates the lack of a
"3rd" step note. When the 5 is indicated, I still fret
the full chord with my left hand, but I mute/muffle the
x'd notes with my right palm (or left index finger).
When the song calls for the chord (without the 5) play
all of the _fretted_ notes.
(really a C#m)

VERSE 2:
I don't mind you hanging out
And talking in your sleep

You look so fancy I can tell...
I don't mind you hanging out
And talking in your sleep

Performance notes:
The "Riffs" could be being played by Eliot Easton on
keyboards, but I saw the Cars play this song on HBO (or
somewhere), and the guitarist had a guitar synth... and
appeared to be playing all of the riffs and lead. Mr.
Ocasic plays the rhythm guitar very muffled through the
verses, and "brash" in the chorus [see notations for
short/staccato (.) and long/legato (-) above the chords];
Mr. Orr is playing 8th note bass lines - pretty much just
following the chords. See above Riff 1 for the strumming
pattern of the rhythm guitar. The following is (I believe)
the first few notes from the guitar solo - if anybody knows
it in it's entirety, please post:

At the END, the C#5 gets held out and the lead guitar digital
delay time is turned way down (smaller) and the effect is turned
up. Cool stuff.
Have fun. Jeff
As always, corrections/additions welcome.
