Here's Allen Stone's "Another Breakup Song". I've included tabs for the riff
he plays during the chorus. It's to be played when I note "riff".
When I say "stop-hit" I mean just that - play a staccato strike of the chord then stop.
Take note that "funky" hammer-on's are only played during the first half of each of
the verses. Listen to the recording for clarification on timing.
This is by ear, please RATE AND COMMENT!
