Trying to follow one of the Reggae samples with one chord in C, but the TAB numbering is confusing me.


The staff notes show what looks like to me two C notes, but the TAB indicates an A String 3 fret and an E string 8th fret notes. The notes on the track sound as if they are being played together but the interval on the TAB will just not allow that. Am I looking at it wrong?
