Intro
Capo 3 standard tuning

challenging picking pattern.  This is 99% accurate if not 100%.  Much time spent 
perfecting and studying.  I have divided the song into sections.  Please read this tab through 
chronologically to play.  Hope you enjoy.

opening progression:
Note:
there are a few tricky techniques here.  First, the notation of 1h>>>3 on the B string 
signifies that the hammer on is a delayed hammer on.  you will see that the bass A note 
is played before the hammer on is completed.

Second, the hammer-on on the A string (there is only one) is not plucked.  The string is 
fretted with the left hand sounding the note, but the string is not plucked.

Third, 0h>>>2  once again signifies a delayed hammer on.

Fourth, the 0h>>>>2/3.  the low E string has a delayed hammer from 0 to 2.  this hammer 
is just enough to sound the note.  the note is then slide up (2/3) seamlessly to pluck 
the next chord configuration.
