Title: The One
Artist: SOiL
Tuning: Drop D
Tabbed By: defstance13 [Matt Albrecht]

Yeah, the song isn't actually in drop D -- the guitarists
use baritone guitars -- but for those of us out there who aren't
that special this is the drop D verson. I'm positive that it's
about 95% correct; I'm unsure about the chords in the chorus.
Other than that, there shouldn't be any mistakes.

KEY:
x = palm mute
/ = slide up
d/u = strum down/up
s = stacatto
h = hammer on
p = pull off

INTRO: Clean

There are a few ways to play this,
but this meathod seems the easiest:

[D9] [F?][Bb5]
e|----------------------------------|
B|--3--3-3-3-3/5--------------------|
G|--2--2-2-2-2/4--3--3-3-3-3-3-3-3--| X4
D|--0--0-0-0-0/0--3--3-3-3-3-3-3-3--|
A|----------------1--1-1-1-1-1-1-1--|
D|----------------------------------|
d d u d u d u d u d u d u

The other way to play the intro
looks like this:

[D5] [F5][Bb5]
e|----------------------------------|
B|----------------------------------|
G|--8--8-8-8-8-10-3--3-3-3-3-3-3-3--| X4
D|--8--8-8-8-8-10-3--3-3-3-3-3-3-3--|
A|--5--5-5-5-5/8--1--1-1-1-1-1-1-1--|
D|----------------------------------|
d d u d u d u d u d u d u

Pick whichever one you like, they both
sound very similar, although personally
I find the top version to be easier.

Distortion kicks in:>INTRO 2<

[D5] [Bb5] [F5]

G|-----------3-3-3-------------------| X4
D|--0-0-0-0--3-3-3-3--3-3-3-3-3-3-3--|

D|--0-0-0-0--------3--3-3-3-3-3-3-3--|


VERSE: Distortion

This is the same as the second part of the
intro, with some palm muting variations.

D|--0-0-0-0--------3--3-3-3-3-3-3-3--|


CHORUS: Distortion

I'm unsure about the last six chords.
I know that i can hear the notes in there,
but I'm just not sure if it's a chord or
something that the other guitar does.

POST CHORUS: Distorton
The rythm for this part is very similar
to the INTRO 2 part, but not exactly the same.
[At least I don't think]

D|--0-0-0-0--------3--3-3-3-3-3-3-3--|

The lead for this part is played like this:

e|------------------------------------------|
B|------------------------------------------|
G|------------------------------------------| X4
D|--7-7-7-7h8-7-------7-7-7-7h8-8/10-8-7----|

END PORTION: Distortion
This part is almost exactly like the chorus,
but just hits a few chords a few more times.

so play the rythm four times, and the lead 2 times].
