  • Notes:
    A7 is be played a few different ways...
    Where A7 is called for, play [- 0 2 0 2 0]
  • Where A7* is noted play [- 0 2 0 2 3]
    D7 also...
    D7 is [- 0 0 2 1 2]
  • D7(V) - [5 5 7 5 7 5]
    D7(V)* - [5 5 7 5 7 8]
     
  • I suggest listening to the recording for the timing on the D7 - D7(V) - D7(V)* progression
     
    There are two low E notes plucked off beat during the intro
  • Intro picking pattern is played very softly, strumming starts at the end
     
    Intro:
  •  
    C E Am ? F
