This requires a strong pinky finger for the hammer-ons and pull-offs. I can't remember the symbols you used, so here are mine: > -hammer on< -pull off \ -slide First, form an open A minor chord. Am D E---------0--------0--------|------------------------------------------B-----1---1--3<1>3<1----3<1-|------------------------------------------G-0>2--------2--------------|-----7-5>7<5-7---5>7<5--------------------D---------------------------|-----7-5>7<5-7---5>7<5--------------------A-----0---------------------|-3\5--------------------------------------E---------------------------|------------------------------------------ ...Play a normal open F chord, omitting the first-fretted note on the high E. For the G, simply slide your F chord up two frets to a G position. For the Am,F, and G chords, all the hammer-ons and pull-offs should be done with your pinky. For the D, use your fourth finger. and bar the two hammered and pulled notes. F G E----0-------0--------|-------------------------------------- B----1-3<1>3<1---3<1--|--------------3----------------------- G------2--------------|------5-4>5<4>5----------------------- D-3-------------------|-3\5--5-5----------------------------- A---------------------|-------------------------------------- E---------------------|-------------------------------------- The Hammer-ons and pull-offs are pretty much the same for the chorus... (the C, Am, F part). I would draw it out, but the Am and F have essentially already been shown. Write me any problems you have with this version. It's hard trying to illustrate on the computer. michael.hong@utoronto.ca
