Please note that The Great Plains is played on a 8 string. I have switched it to a 6
The only difference is the last few notes, but don't worry, it sounds the same :] it is all
and at the second and last figures you use two fingers for some notes.
Have fun.

This next bit consists of four figures. Now remember that this entire song is tapped, so
stays true for this next part too. You play these figures for how ever many times. :]

Play however many times :] The part during this section that kind of switches up and
trippy is guitar layering. To play this part you need two guitarists, so don't worry about
:]
