| The (Am Cm7* Am A5) bit is once again imitating the riff... if u notice... although it |
| confusing... all your doing is just hammering on then pulling off fret4 on the D string, |
| just pulling of fret 1 on the b string. this applies for both the (Am Cm7* Am A5) bit |
| the (C Cmaj7* C Cmaj7**) bit. if you find this too difficult... you can just play the c |
| or get a second guitar to play the following riff... or if u just wanna muck around with |
| riff... |
| (also with capo on 5) |
e---------------| B---------1-0---| G-----0-4-------| D---2-----------| A-3-------------| E---------------|
| it can also be played like this wihtut a capo... but i find that it sounds better with a capo |
e---------------| B---------------| G---------------| D---------3-2---| A-----0-3-------| E-0-1-----------|
| this is a great song... and i hope i've done it justice.... go 2 youtube and watch them |
| it live! amazing! |
