• Song:

    If I Could Be Like That

  • Artist:

    3 Doors Down

This is my first tab so bear with me. This is how I taught myself to play it. It may 
a bit confusing at first, but play along with the song and you should do fine. The song is 
acoustic version of ?If I Could Be Like That? by 3 Doors Down.

Legend:
\ = down stroke (strumming)
/ = up stroke (strumming)
X = string not played / muted
