--2-2--5-5--0-0--2-2-------0-0----------------------------------     fun bass line 

pick slide then go into the guitar part. we all know there are 4 or 5 ways to play
the intro part. 

R1(a)

----------------------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------------------------
------4---5---4---2-------2-------------------------------------
--2-2---2---2---2---5-4-5---5-4-0-------------------------------

Or play it the open string way (more "ting" / ezer)

R1(b)
----------------------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------------------------
------4---5---4----2-0----0-2-0---------------------------------

This is where Fills two or Three come in

(the 5's are harmonics, to "bend" the harmonic you have to place your right hand on the bottom
left of your guitar, and your left hand at the tip of the neck and push out with your left
hand and in with your right hand, don't do it hard, just a little pressure will do.)

F5
