I've recently joined TG and am just getting started here. I am working on The 59th Street Bridge Song, and I think there's a mistake in the PDF tab sheet for the song. In the second measure, second half of the second beat, shouldn't that be a B instead of a D? I'm pretty sure you're playing the melody line of E, D, C, B. It didn't sound right playing it as written, and I think that's the problem.

What finger are you playing the B with?

Can you post a video of what you are playing?

If you mean the pickin hand it is my midlle finger(its a open second string(B) ) I play it not every time if we look at two measers I play the B every second time around i believe..

Edit: I can post a video if you give me some time...but it is very simple,,just don't play the D,play the open string..it is ease'r..
