Fills

Fill 1
e|----12--11--9------9-----9--------|
B|---------------12-----12----9-----|
G|----------------------------------|
D|-------------------------------12~|
A|----------------------------------|
E|----------------------------------|

When this part hits the 12 on the D string,
it lands on the down beat. Therefore you
can play it if you want, but I suggest
sliding back up to the A chord, since it
is happening at the exact same time. Use
the 12 if you are using a rhythm guitar
and lead guitar.



Fill 2
e|--------12----11----9-------------|
B|---------9-----9----9-------------|
G|---------9-----9----9-------------|
D|--------11----11---11-------------|
A|----------------------------------|
E|----------------------------------|

The same thing goes for this part too.
When it rolls around to the 11 9 9 9,
it also lands on the downbeat. I would
suggest not playing it and going back
up to the A chord unless you have a
second guitarist.
