Advanced Melodies "Ragtime Truckin'" by Mickey Cochran

Here's a challenging Ragtime Chord Progression...with an emphasis on the alternating bass. These techniques, once learned, can work well within many other similar types of music.

Picking Hand: T = Thumb • I = Index Finger • M = Middle Finger (indicated above the tablature)
