How Do You Love by Collective Soul
Tabbed by:  Jessup Dixon

The first chords version is very close, but I think the C/B chord is tabbed wrong.  
how I play it:

  C (x32010@1)C/B (x2555x@1)Am|-0---0---0--| (x02210@1)|-1---1---1--|
|-0---0---2--|
|-2---2---2--|
|-3---2---0--|
|-x---x---x--|

The progression is the same.  Here's how I strum it:

v = downstroke
^ = upstroke
Numbers below tab show time.  The 8th strum is a half note, with the upstroke being the 
half of the note.  So the intro and verse would go:

  v  v  v  v  v  v  v  v  ^
|-0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0-|
|-1--1--1--1--1--1--1--1--1-|
|-0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0-|
|-2--2--2--2--2--2--2--2--2-|
|-3--3--3--3--3--3--3--3--3-|
|-x--x--x--x--x--x--x--x--x-|
  1  2  3  4  5  6  7  8  &

  v  v  v  v  v  v  v  v  ^
|-0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0-|
|-1--1--1--1--1--1--1--1--1-|
|-0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0-|
|-2--2--2--2--2--2--2--2--2-|
|-2--2--2--2--2--2--2--2--2-|
|-x--x--x--x--x--x--x--x--x-|
  1  2  3  4  5  6  7  8  &

  v  v  v  v  v  v  v  v  ^
|-0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0-|
|-1--1--1--1--1--1--1--1--1-|
|-2--2--2--2--2--2--2--2--2-| x2
|-2--2--2--2--2--2--2--2--2-|
|-0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0-|
|-x--x--x--x--x--x--x--x--x-|
  1  2  3  4  5  6  7  8  &

The chorus and pre-chorus is strummed the same way, but with the chords listed for each.

Dean throws in some flare during the break after the solo, but I haven't tabbed it here. 
Listen to the song, it's not hard to hear.  Enjoy!
