One Life tab by The Pillows

Artist: The Pillows
Album : FLCL Soundtrack
Song  : One Life
Author: David Drew @ dclowd9901@hotmail.com

This song is the first song played in the fantastic anime
series, FLCL. The Pillows are a popular J-Rock band out of
Japan (obviously). I won't bother putting any of the lyrics
in, as they're all in Japanese, and most people (outside
of Japan) don't speak Japanese.

I recommend listening to the song, if you haven't already.
It will give you a good idea of the progression, tempo and
rhythm, especially for the solo. This tab is all my own time
and work, so I appreciate it if credit is given to me if this
tab appears anywhere other than the OLGA.

Back into chorus, then intro.

The solo's pretty simple, given some practice. A good
starting point for those wishing to start incorporating
old fashioned solos into their music playing.
