Artist: Old 97's Song: The One Tuning: Standard Transcribed By: Max Quinn. I'd just like to note that I haven't touched Ken's little solo in the verse that's about It works of the C position Fmajor scale, and I've just been improvising off that. Ken's Guitar part in the intro, however, is just an ostinato revolving around the F in 6th fret of the B string. It's along the lines of... e-------6-5-8-5-6-5----| B---6-6----6-------8-6-| G-/7---7---------------| D----------------------| A----------------------| E----------------------| The chords are F/F/Gm/Bb x 4 F I Gm Bb F Got a check for nothing Gm Bb F All made out to someone Gm Bb F Gm Bb I truly love myself F Murray says we?re gonna Gm Bb F take the money sometime Gm Bb F Well it might as well be this time Gm Bb F Gm Bb We?re gonna spend it all on ourselves F Ken Gm Bb F picked this bank at random Gm Bb F I said, do we shoot them?

Must be played fairly quickly. He seems to a lower sound than what I do, so it's conceivable he'in drop D, but I'm not sure on this. e------------------------------------------| B------------------------------------------| G------------------------------------------| D-5-5-5-----5-7-8-8-8----------------------| A------5-5-5---------8-8-8-----8----8----8-| E--------------------------8h10-8h10-8h10--| e-------------------------------------------------------| B-------------------------------------------------------| G-------------------------------------------------------| D----------------------5-5-5-----5-5-5-5-7-8-8-8------8-| Let's take the one A-3-3-3-----3-3-3-----------5-5-5---------------8-8-8---| E------3-3-3-----3-3-3----------------------------------| -------------------------------------------- Gm Bb Now the good times have begun F That?s not a fire -- it?s just the sun C It?s like the old man said Gm Take the money and run Bb (stop) What?s the rush?
