"I Won't Back Down" by Tom Petty

"I Won't Back Down" by Tom Petty

- This next beat is from another Tom Petty song that's called I Won't Back Down and the drummer's Phil Jones and he's playing a beat a lot like what we just learned in Back in Black except the tempo's faster. This is 114 beats per minute and the beat sounds like this. (cymbals) (drumming and bass) The next beat were gonna learn is from Green Day's song Boulevard of Broken Dreams and Tre Cool is the drummer on this tune and he plays an extra bass drum hit on the and of three so there's bass strum on beats one, three and the and of three. And the song sounds like this. (cymbal) (drumming and bass)
