!notes emphasising to get melody to ring out - if not playing at point where chord comes
in for the first time or on a snare hit you can pick individually

[More Notes]
Nice idea for drum fill + guitar at same time to get &1xx 2xx 3x&
Strum up with all fingers of right hand and then back down with thumb
to play the snare for 1& then play snare and fingers together for
2xx then just snare on 3 and then just fingers with bass for x&

[Solo]
With solo you can allude to it in chords
Pick up  - Dm Dm
Dmadd9 (x57585) Dm
Gm Gm7(B-6) F x
Gm Gm7(B-6) F
A with run

Run is 3 triplets then final phrase - pluck with fingers and thumb and emphasise the one of each triplet
E -----10-13p10h13-10----------
B 10h13 -------------13p10-----
G -------------------------- 10
D ------------------------s12

Dmadd9 (x57585) Dm
Gm Gm7(B-6) F x
Gm Gm7(B-6) F
C with final high bend simulation
(mute low D string as you bring little finger across to play the line)

E -8--8------8-10-8-10b12-------------
B -8--8-8-10------8-----------------
G -9--9-----------9--------------
D -10-10----------10----------------

[Old notes]
Chords are variation on (see end for more notes)
Dm G/D (F G/D) Dm x 2
Then Dm Dm G/D Dm (back to Dm on offbeat) - Dm Dm Dm Dm

[Intro - alternative notes]
[Section 1 - Twice]
Dm (line is B - 6, G - 7 .... G - 7, B - 6)
4 notes over 3 pattern B6 G7 x G7
Actually can just play Dm7 Dm x Dm which alludes to line
Horn line just before G
Octaves - A-5+B-3 to A-9+B-6
Fingering is important - play with 1 and 3
so can get to Gadd9 quickly
Gadd9 G (second time G G(B-5) G)
F G
Dm Dm(B-8) Dm pattern 1(Dm) xx 2(Dm(B-8)) Xx Dm
Play above all with downstrokes to get right feel
Means have to play snare hit quickly after down stroke
[Second time around]
Octaves - A-5+B-3 to A-9+B-6
(Dm with 3rd finger off) X55765 (Dm) X57765
X57765 X57X68
G G(B-5) G -- simulate guitar G G9 pull off to G
(Can potentially get away with playing G7 which frees up finger
for these lines and full E 5p3 B 6 line before playing F
F G
Dm Dm(B-8) Dm pattern 1(Dm) xx 2(Dm(B-8)) Xx Dm
[Section 2 - Twice]
Dm Dm G/D (try sliding up to Em7-ish with D in
bass 10x9787) Dm
