------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Old Dirt Hill (Bring That Beat Back) - Dave Matthews And Tim Reynolds ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: M Silvey E-mail: [email protected] If you aren't singing as you play, then you should be!!!!

Guitar 2) Blend into Verse Keep middle finger on D(B3). Pinky for fret 5. Easy.
