Here is the basic progression of the song. I'm confident that it is accurate,
and I've put together three different ways to play it - all the same notes,
just in different places on the guitar. You pick.
The first version is easiest, but the hammer-on is an octave higher than in the
actual song. The third version is hardest but sounds closest to the real thing.
Tuning: Regular - EADGBe
