verse a

D|---11----11-----------11----11----------| sometimes, just let the 12 ring instead of sliding to nine
A|-9-----9----12-12\9--9-----9----12\7----| note: the 12\9 is slow, just listen to the song
E|----------------------------------------|

verse b

D|---11----11---------11----11------------| same thing here, just mix it up whether you slide down to 9 or not
