Chord/Tab song: My One Desire

Chord,Tablature, lyric, sheet, guitar, ukulele song: My One Desire - ( Band Stray Cats Tuning: Standard Back with another one. ...)

--
Band Stray Cats
Tuning: Standard

Back with another one. I think it's official that The Stray Cats
is my favorite band of all time. I have other rockabilly/psycho tabs
lined up but I just keep going back to the Cats and keep having that urge
to learn every damn song they put out even if it means putting a
hold on other songs I've been wanting to transcribe
for years now. We got another flawless cover of
Ricky Nelsons original. Composed with 2 excellent solos that
have some of my favorite solo endings that Brian has done.
Sorry, if there is a lot of detail. I wanted to get the little
nuances of the songs since my ear is improving a little more each time.
But of course, you don't have to play it the way Brian does.
You can just play the basic progression that I will list for you.
Strums are not exact. Lets go!!!
