One Drop Chords

Ok, so there were no good versions of this great song and that had to change, so I made this quality tab/chord that I hope you'll enjoy. The chord placing/timing is meant for playing it solo. If you're not playing it solo, but maybe with the track, then it's still fine. Accurate enough to play along with the original.Was this info helpful?

Feel it in the one drop

Playing a rhythm

Oh no! oh no! oh no!

Thanks but it’s just a straightforward I iv ii V progression. Very very common in many genres. I love it nonetheless. The whole Survival album is a masterpiece. I’m off to listen to it right now!
