Hootie and The Blowfish - Only Wanna be With You (Acoustic)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: bascomthomas
E-Mail:
I figured out the majority of it to sound as close to the original as I could but the solo I can't
get quite right (as this works with electric as well) so you'll have to figure that out by ear... if someone
has it please comment it so I can throw it in (will give credit where it's due). There aren't very many
techniques used throughout the song (really only during the solo) and it's pretty easy to get after you play
it for a bit. I tabbed this on an acoustic but it works fine for acoustic and electric so use whichever you
prefer. Hope you enjoy!
Capo 2
You can adjust the Capo to fit your voice (I personally prefer Capo 1) but Capo 2 fits best with
the original recording.
[Chords]
E (022100)
F#m7add11/C# (x44200)
Aadd9 (577600)
Bsus4 (x24400)
Strum Pattern:
E to F#m7add11/C# to E
D-D-U-UD-DU-DU-DU D-D-U...
Aadd9 to Bsus4
D-D-D-DU-UD-DU-DU D-D-D-DU...
Bsus4 to E
D-D-D-DU-UD-DU-DU D-D-U...
For the strum pattern E and F#m7add11/C# are both about a half measure each (to figure out spacing
with the strums) and Aadd9 and Bsus4 are both full measures. You just have to work at them (they
are kind of awkward at first) and eventually it'll start to sound right.
