This is my first tab. All the tabs I found for this song were either inaccurate or 
didn't show both guitars playing separately. I borrowed from other tabs as well as 
YouTube videos and this is what I came up with. There are some harmonics and bends 
towards the end that Shiflett plays. I didn't put these in. If you want the most 
accurate tab, buy the tab book for One by One. :)

Now, it splits into two parts for the rest of the verse - Grohl and Shifflet play 
different parts here, Shiflett plays the lead. Now, for Grohl's part you can do 
power chords A5 and Bb5 instead. You can judge whichever sounds better to you.

Chorus(Grohl Only) 

e|--------------------------1----6------|
B|---4--------3--------2----1----6------|
G|--------------------------2----7------|
D|---5--------5--------3----3----8------|   (x2)
A|---6--------5--------4----3----8------|
E|--------------------------1----6------|

Now you can either let these notes ring or strum them. You can figure out the 
strumming pattern yourself. There are slight variations in the strumming pattern; 
do it however it sounds best for you.

Now you go back to the verse/main riff and play that twice. Then Chris comes in 
after the verse is played twice and you do the same thing as the first time around 
when it splits into two parts.

Chorus again 
THEN Verse/Main Riff (first part only, don't play the part where they split) x 2 
THEN
