Don't go for harmonies in the chorus too much Opening figure - use thumb and first finger to play B - 1 3 E - 1 0 B - 1 3 Whilst still holding the C chord as much as possible so it sustains Chord for C/Bb - 6x555 Run down - D 0 - A- 3 2 0 then play G - don't pull off play first with first finger then rest with thumb Piano intro C - notes - dont try to hold C maj chord - use second finger for the 1 so in good position to finger the next chord B 1 3 E 1 0 B 3 1 (hammer on and pull off) - 11xx1x 01xx1x x10x1x Use side of thumb and muting with left hand to 1 &3&4 - staccato on 4 Losing everything - have snare hit with no chord OR just play bass drum with chords [Intro] |C |C/Bb |F C |F |
