This Train

this train ( wisdom version )
bob marley

i haven’t found the tabs available don’t sound quite right , but i couldn’t figure out
what was wrong
with them . so i had my musical genius brother give me the right chords and i thought
i’d clean it
up and share .

note that the B chords can played B7 in most spots . i find it sounds best with this
voicing if you do :

E – 2 – |
B – x – |
G – 2 – |
D – 1 – |
A – 2 – |
E – – – |

also , on the G to C sections , there’s often a slide or hammer up to the C . i think it
sounds better
playing it as a slide from B to C :

E – – – – – – – – |
B – 45 – – 5 – |
G – 45 – – 5 – |
D – 45 – – 5 – |
A – 23 – – 3 – |
E – – – – – – – – |

but you can also play it as a hammer from A G triad to A C triad :

E – – – – – – – – |
B – 3h5 – – 5 – |
G – 4h5 – – 5 – |
D – 5 – – – – 5 – |
A – – – – – – – – |
E – – – – – – – – |
