Play the D note whichever way is the easiest.
(I use the first one.)
Each Note Is Played Several Times
(It's Best To Practice Along With The Album).
First Verse:
One thing I know is true - I need a little girl like you
So I can stop hanging around
So I can stop making that downtown trip, you know
It's starting to get old
If you know what I mean
You can scream and shout and it'll be fine
Keep me in bed all day and blow my mind
You can hold me tight and rattle my brain
You can kiss me and drive me insane
Give me funny little shivers up and down my spine
When we kiss each and every time
What I'm thinking and doing never seem to work out
They're always two different things you know
Open up your eyes and see that you're the only girl for me
Chorus: (2x)
(Oh) Debra Jean baby you're my queen
And queens don't seem to speak
To guys like me (Ooh me)
I was meant for meant for you and you were meant for me
Solo: (See the bottom of this tab sheet.)
Second Verse:
One thing I know is true - I need a little girl like you
Someone to stay with me and stick by my side
And someone I can call my little butterfly
Give me funny little shivers up and down my spine
When we kiss each and every time
What I'm thinking and doing never seem to work out
They're always to different things you know
Open up your eyes and see that you're the only girl for me
Chorus: (Again) (ad nauseum)
(The chorus repeats as the song fades out.)
The Solo: (Arranged an octave lower for the bass.)

The Backing Riff For The Solo:
There. That was my second tab. If it doesn't sound right,
then your bass probably isn't tuned.
