Tripping Billies by Dave Matthews Band
I've worked on this one for a while, and im pretty sure its right. Once you get the finger formation, its not that hard.
Intro
On this he uses his first finger to mute out the first two strings, and his second finger to mute the A string so that he can strum all of them together.
X-muted
E --X----X--------X----X----X----X----X----X--------X--X--X--X------
B --X----X--------X----X----X----X----X----X--------X--X--X--X------
G --2----4--------2----4----7----6----2----4--------2--4--6--7------Repeat once more
D --0----0--------0----0----0----0----0----0--------0--0--0--0------
A --X----X--------X----X----X----X----X----X--------X--X--X--X------
E --2----3--------2----3----7----5----2----3--------2--3--5--7------
( strum fast)
Verse
With this part he basically uses bar chordes and breaks them up. Here's the break down.
E---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
B---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
G------6------------------------------7---------------------------------------------6--------------------------7------
D-- ---------7----7-----------------------7--------------10--------9---XXXX-------------7----7---------------------7--

E--5------------------------------------------------8-----------7------XXXX-----5-------------------------------------
E----X----X---------
B----X----X---------
G----2----4-----------Repeat once more
D----0----0-----------
A----X----X----------
E----2----3-----------
3rd Part
This uses the same fingerings as the intro, just in a different order
"….drink and be merry…"
E---X---X-----X---X---X-------X--X--X--X--X-----------
B---X---X-----X---X---X-------X--X--X--X--X-----------
G---7---7-----6---6---6-------2--4--6--7--6------------Repeat several times
D---0---0-----0---0---0-------0--0--0--0--0-------------
A---X---X-----X---X---X-------X--X--X--X--X------------
E---7---7-----5---5---5-------2--3--5--7--5-------------
4th Part
"Cause were tripping billies.." This is the same as the verse part.
During the violin solos play the 3rd part and finish out with the intro.

you can also use ur thumb to go along the low e string and also mute the a string at the same time, i find that it is easier to do that... but it sounds pretty right, maybe just a little different than what dave plays, but when i play it people know what i'm playing, and that's all i can ask for, good job
