On The Ride Tab

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
			     ON THE RIDE - ALY AND A.J.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Tuning: Std, A=440Hz
Tempo: Approx. 80 bpm

Notes:  Less obvious timings are written in.
Less obvious melodic figures are tabbed,  but some obvious incidental notes and/or 
while strumming are not -
LISTEN if you want it to be perfect.
The very last chorus has slightly more aggressive strumming,
otherwise don't get in the way of the vocal.
This is tabbed for standard tuning but can easily be played drop "D".
