Drive By - Train
Tab by Alex Maldonado


Video Here


Info: 


This is a tutorial on the studio version. The song is in standard tuning. 


All chords are strummed on the up beat or the (and) of every beat. When you count 1 and 2 and 3 and 4 the chords are played on the "and"  on 1 2 3 4 you are strumming muted strings. Essentially you are strumming muted strings before every chord you play. 


***Chord images and fingerings at the bottom of page! This is great if you can't read chords on the tabs.
