The Only One I Know tab by The Charlatans

SONG  : The Only One I Know
ARTIST : The Charlatans
ALBUM : Some Friendly
TAB BY : Chris Brooke [c.brooke@ntlworld.com]


Transcribed by the request of my old mate Rov... dude, snake eyes
are watching you!

This song sounds best played with only humbuckers selected and
cranked up to the max (obviously).
The main riff of this song is whacked out on bass, but can sound
better doubled up with another guitar.

Enjoy~
