  • and from the halfway through the first verse on, pretty much the whole
    song follows this pattern. The intro and first line use a different
    picking pattern (which is more difficult to follow AND keep time AND sing
  • to), so I suggest getting used to the core pattern before trying the
    intro/1st verse.

  • 12-(14)-12 is pick d at the twelfth fret, bend up to e and rls bend to a
     
    sl is slide
  •  
    $- I think that the bridge goes UP from Dm->Em->Am, but Am at the 12th
    fret sounds a bit weak, also the band/bass has come in a lot by this
  • point, so you could easily get away with a standard Am (at the nut).
