Playing the D string on the 5th, and then the A. _ _ _
_ _ And then [A] up to the 7th on the D. _
[D] 4 and 5, D, A.
_ _ [Em] Then I'm moving up to the [A] 7th on the D.
[F] _
To the 8th on the A.
Back to the 7th.
[C] _ _
_ _ [E] _ [Cm] 5, 5, [Em] 5, _ 7.
_ [G] So I'll play that again. _
_ _ [A] _ _ [D] _ _ _ _
_ [A] _ [F] _ _ [C] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ The next part goes.
_ [D] _ _ _ _ _ _ [C] _
_ [D] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Gm] And that again is on the 5th position.
_ _ [C] _
_ _ _ [Em] _ So I'm going [C] 5, [D] 7 on the G.
[E] 5 on the B.
_ [F] _
_ _ 6 on the B.
_ [E] Back to the [D] 5.
_ _ [C] 7, 5, [D] 7 on the D.
Sorry, the G.
So [C] let me play that again.
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [G] _ So the whole verse we've just done is. _ _
_ _ [A] _ _ [D] _ _ _ _
[A] _ [F] _ _ _ [C] _ _ _ _
_ _ [D] _ _ [E] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

_ 7 on the D.
[Gm] Sorry, 5 on the D.
_ [Am] _ _ [C] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [A] _ _ That's the next [C] part.
_ _ [D] _ _ _ _ _
[E] So it's all on the 5 there.
So we're going.
_ _ [C] B, G, D, [A] E. _
On those strings.
_ [C] And then we're going to [Am] go. _
_ _ [G] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [F] _ _ _ [C] _
_ _ [Ab] _ _ [G] _ _ [Em] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _
_ OK, so that was.
[Am] _ _ 5 on the E.
_ _ 8 on the B. _ _
_ 7 on the G.
[F] _ 6 on the B.
_ [C] _ _ 5 on the G. _
[Ab] _ [G] 6, 5 on the D.

[G] _ 5 on the D.
[B] _
4 on the G.
[G] _ And then we're going.
And back to the 5th on [Em] the D. _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [G] Then we go back into the verse. _
[D] _ _ _ _ _ _ [F] _ _
_ [C] _ _ _ _ _ [A] _ _
_ [Am] _ _ _ _ _ [D] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [B] _ _
_ Now we're going to work through the middle section of the tune.
It goes like this.
Using a palm mute technique. _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Gbm] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Am] _ _ _ _ I'll play it through slowly now without the palm mute technique.
[B] So you can hear the notes clearly. _ _
_ _ [A] _ _ _ _ [G] _ _
_ [E] _ _ _ _ [D] _ _ _
[Gm] _ _ [D] _ _ _ _ [G] _ _
_ [E] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [B] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [D] _ _ _ _
_ [Gbm] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[A] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
It's important to remember that there is [G] a verse in the song.
Where the picking pattern changes from.
_ [D] _ _ _ _
_ _ [C] _ _ [E] _ _ To.
[G] _ _ _ _ [A] _ _ [D] _ _
_ _ [F] _ _ _ [C] _ _ _
[E] _ So just work with those up and down strokes to get that.
[G] _
_ _ _ _ [A] _ _ [Gb] _ _
[D] _ _ _ _ [F] _ _ _ [C] _
_ _ _ _ [E] _ _ _ _
_ Then to finish the song.
_ [D] Use the palm mute technique.
And that is the intro that we learned to play the outro. _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Em] _ _
_ _ _ _ Well that's the end of the lesson.
Thank you very much for [N] watching.
I hope you enjoyed it.
