Everybody Needs Somebody To Love Chords

(ver. 1)
13th Floor Elevators
13th Floor Elevators- Everybody Needs Somebody To Love
13th Floor Elevators-Live 



Originally done by Solomon Burke in the early 60's...the Stones and others also
covered it it's a great soulful song, and in the Elevators version Roky changes
up the lyrics a bit. And Stacey Sutherland really lays down a cool little solo
(I can't tab it, so if anyone wants to that would be sweet!). Enjoy!
