Hey, this is John with Sixth String Country, and we're going to learn a song,
One I Want by the Flatland Cavalry.
One I Want was written by Cleto Cordero.
The song is in G and features a fiddle part that's condensed down
to electric guitar, as well as two guitar solos and a two-step and chicken
picking part at the end.
There's an easy finger-picking pattern as well as some strumming in there.
Let's go ahead and get started.
[G]
[C]
[G] [C] When I say I [C] want you, [G] girl, I mean.
[C] When I say I love you, [G] you're gonna feel [C] it.
Each [G] and every day I go out of [C] my way, [G] above and beyond.
[C] [G]
[C] Just [D] so you know I have the [C] one love.
[G]
You're the one I want.
[C] [G] Gonna write you love songs to show you my feeling.
I could tell you, but I'd rather [C] sing.
Put a name in the chorus of a love song story so
that you make everybody want to [G] sing along.
[G]
[D] So you don't have to [G] wonder.
You're the one I want.
Gonna have all the answers when I take the phone.
When it comes to uncertainty, I've never been more sure.
[C] Darling, when it comes to you, I never [G] had a doubt.
So for the rhythm part of this song, I'm gonna play my acoustic here.
The song's in G, and it's only gonna feature three chords.
It's a G, standard G, just a refresh on that.
E string, third fret, D, open D, open G, third fret, B string, third fret, E.
And a C two chord, [Gm] that's just a third fret, A.
And [D] then [E] I'm gonna have a D string, [G] second fret,
then open G, and then B string, third fret, E string, third fret.
And then [D] just a D chord.
You're on a little D chord.
That's an open D string, second fret, G string, third fret, B string, and
second fret, E string.
We're just gonna hang out on the G and just grab that.
[C]
[G] [C]
[C] As you can see in your tabs below, this is [G] the part.
[C] [G] So that pull off [A] there is pretty important on the first fret, B string.
[C]
[C] [G] [D] [G]
[C]
[Ab] So let's add those hammer-ons in there using that same down, up, down, up,
down, [G] down, up.
[C]
[D] [G]
[C] [G] [E] So that's the rhythm lesson.
Let's play the intro.
One, two, three, four.
[G] [C] [G]
[C] [E] Here's verse one, two, [G] and four.
One, two, three, four.
[C]
[G] [C]
[G] [C]
[C] [G] [C]
[D] [G]
That's what I love about using this bridge pickup is that [D] it interacts really
nicely with the amp.
I'm [E] grabbing fiddle licks.
If you listen to the actual song, there's a really cool fiddle part.
And the fiddle really takes the lead.
But being that we're gonna convert that down [Gm] to an electric guitar,
I transposed some of the riff to this guitar here.
And we're just gonna comp most of the fiddle licks.
The first verse, I'm doing big diamonds because the fiddle's playing some
really beautiful [Gb] stuff, but it's [Abm] gonna sound busy if I'm [G] trying to double that.
Compression's gonna help that sustain, and it's just gonna breathe for a sec.
You go back down to that G.
I'm gonna go to [D] D chord, into a four chord [G] C chord, back to the riff.
[Bm]
[G] So for the verse one and verse two,
I'm gonna end those verses with a version of that [A] riff.
I'm not gonna play the front half.
[G] I'm not gonna do the [Am] pickup.
I'm just gonna slide from the second fret G string, first fret B string.
[Bm] [G] And then we're into the second verse.
So just a recap on that first verse.
Starting on the G chord, you're coming out of that riff.
So we're starting the first verse.
Just let that diamond, let that breathe.
And go [G] that C chord, and go back to that G chord.
Hit the D.
Okay, so for [Gb] the second guitar solo, we're coming out of the last chorus, and
we're gonna move into a two-step and style solo.
So the song changes, kind of takes [G] a turn.
And I'll go ahead and [Bb] play you the back half of that riff into the guitar solo,
and we'll break it down into segments.
One, two, three, four. One, two.
[G] [A]
[Bb] [Dm] [G]
[Cm] [G]
I'm hitting this third fret B in E strings.
So I'm really sliding from nowhere in first fret, but
it's really just a random slide.
[E] [G] [D]
[C] [G]
