About this lesson Tabs & MP3s Need Help?

This is just a great tune to jam on! It's usually played pretty laid back, so this is a great time to work on your crosspicking as well. This tab has both forward, forward-reverse, and backward rolls built into the melody, so you can really get a good crosspickin' workout!

    Try measure 3 on its own at half tempo, and keep your right hand rolling even when the left hand is behind. The right hand is the metronome.
