Song: "I'm One" (Beginning only--with a couple of gaps)
Band: The Who
Album: Quadrophenia
Guy who who spent too much time typing this up: Derek Dial (ddial@itsa.ucsf.edu)
I saw that this song was on the Most Wanted list as of 3/31 so I thought
I would send in as much of it as I know (which is just about all of it).
I hope somebody still wants this.
This is my first attempt at puting anything into tab, and this is what it's
supposed to mean. I think the song is in 4/4 time so I have made
4 dashes (----) equal to one eigth note. (The way I have represented the
bars it may actually be in 8/4 time in which case 4 dashes equals one
quarter note--it dosen't really matter; just listen to the recording and play
it as you here it.) Anway, in the notation 'h' means hammer-on and 'p'
means pull-off. You should let the notes ring throughout the song except
where there is a '.' above the note and where the optional pull-off is. That's about it. Obviously, the strings should be plucked with the fingers
using the standard fingerpicking protocol.
Have fun!

Play 6 times *Note: I don't know if this pull off actually exists
in the song, but it helps to stop the C from ringing

Not sure what happens here: I think this
is a Dsus4(?) chord played with the low F#.
(low to high F#,X,D,A,D,e)
What I've tabbed above is WAY wrong.
