Introduction and Riff: e-----------| B-----------| G-----------| D-------2---| A-----2-----| E-0-3-------| Those four notes: E, G, B, and E (on your fourth string) are played in succession then played backward in succession from your D's E to your open E on your sixth string twice. When you play from your open E again you add these notes, looking like this: e-------------------| B-------------------| G-------------------| D-------2h3p2(v)----| A-----2-------------| E-0-3---------------| You then repeat all over again. When Simon sings "The hollow that I parted on..." you only play the riff as follows from your open E with no backwards playing. However, what follows next is how I go about it. You can play an Am chord or F#5 power chord (with double root or no double root).
