I was listening to this the other day and thought I knew how to
play it....until I picked up my guitar and realized that I did
not.. Anyone have tab for this? If not I'll dig in and
figure it out....it's fun anyways.
So there are 2 different recordings. I'm referring to the
version on the 1960 Walk Don't Run Album (A cover of the
original 1951 version by Jimmy Forrest). They also recorded a
different version in 1964. Here is the 1960 version I am
referring to.

The Ventures arrangement of "Night Train" on their album
Walk:Don't Run!(Their very 1st album) is a wonderfully
sophisticated rock/jazz/pop treat.
This rates among my favorite recordings, and is a perfect
example of the music which I listened to intently that taught me
how to I wanted to play the guitar.

Jeff's comments are right on. I really like the jazzy feel
this tune has as well..
Anyway, I have completed my take at tab for this. I don't think
the 2nd verse is quite right...I cant get the ringing sound of
the strings...it may be played in a different position on the
neck, but this is close.
Any updates or corrections are welcome.
Hope you enjoy playing this as much as I do
