Intro - play hammer on with little finger so easier to finger notes and keep ringing
E -x-------0 1 3 ------8----8------------------------3p1----1-- B -3---1-3---------10----10-8-----8b10----6--8b10---------3-1-- G -2-0h2--------------------9-------------------------------2-- D -0------------------------10------------------------------3-- A --------------------------10--0---------------------------3-- E -----------------8--------8----------------------1--------1--
Alternative idea - play Fshape chords with F7 fingering but mute the 7th with second finger - frees up little finger to play notes of the solo - e.g. 810x988 and 13x211 Strumming guitar pattern - play bass note, pluck top notes with fingers - first 2 8th notes then play for rest of bar with chords offbeat then for the 'right down' chords pluck all staccato
