Tuning: standard (eBGDAE)
Intro
There are two guitars in the intro. Guitar 1 is strumming the chords and guitar 2 is
them with various hammer-ons and pull-offs.
These is the chord progression
Dm /// Am /// C /// G /// F ///
Here’s a sample of guitar 2. I obviously will not include every
nuance of the playing, but this represents the main feel. It can
Be played in a number of locations on the neck. Experiment!
