Hint: The perpetual slide guitar riff implies a couple of other chords, but from a harmonic analysis perspective, it's all the One chord. Slight Disclaimer: It's got a generic barroom blues ending, which MIGHT be construed as containing a walkdown with a few chords, but considering that the song repeats the same riff over and over and over for 4:43 of its 4:54 length, I think it qualifies as Only One Chord.
