The A5 filigree is played by keeping your middle and ring fingers in the 2nd fret 
Am position. You never have to lift your middle and ring finger. Merely shift your 
fore finger and pinky back and forth to hit the other notes.

A5 A5 D5 A5 A5 Am. There are a couple of hammer-ons in there, but you'll get it 
if you listen to it.
