It's the simplest version of it that I can put down. Sometimes he doesn't return to the
8 on the D string, but returns to the 10 on the A and slides just that down.
Or sometimes he just mutes at 7 on A and D and plays that. Basically there is no real
consistency that I have found. If anyone figures it out I would appreciate anything
telling me.
Another pre-chorus type thing (again wouldn't know what to call it).
