The One Tab

by Shakira


Well, here are the chords for "The One" by Shakira.  I hate all of her music except
this song.  I guess it is because of the chords used.  Give me some feedback if you
find anything wrong.  

NOTE:  If you want it to be in key with the song, tune a half step up.

-Kelley
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

(starts on kind of a scale going down on the "A" string.)

a-7--6------5--------4---------3
So I find a reason to shave my legs 
e----2
Each single morning 
a-7-----------6----------------5
So I count on someone on Friday nights 
a----------4---------3
To take me dancing again 
e--2
To church on Sundays 
            
To plant more trees 
                   
And someday think of kids 
                   
Or maybe just save a little money 


Chorus: 
          (D) 
You're the one I need 

The way back home is always long 
    
But if you're close to me I'm holding on 
          (D) 
You're the one I need 

My real life has just begun 
                                            
Cause there's nothing like your smile made of sun 
                    
In the world full of strangers 
           
You're the one I know 

(There really aren't chords here, but I'll just guess...)
                              
So I learned to cook and finally lose 
   
My kitchen phobia 
                              
And so I got the arms to cuddle in 
                          
When there's a ghost or a news
     
That brings insomnia 
          
To buy more thongs 
                  
To write more happy songs 
                       
It always takes a little help from someone 

Chorus 2X 
          (D) 
You're the one I need 
                 
You're the one I need 

With you my real life has just begun 
          (D) 
You're the one I need 

You're the one I need 

Nothing like your smile made of sun 
       (D)     
Nothing like your love
                  
Nothing like your love

Ahhhhhhhhhh
                  (let ring out)
Nothing like your love
