The Tab (da-da-daaaaa!)

# Ok then you mothers, most of you seem to be getting this beginning bit a little wrong, as it doesn’t stay the same each time he plays it! And you all need to know to identify Hammer On/Pull Offs!!! Tut tut you naughty players.


  NOTATION!!:

 ‘~’   When the fretting hand ‘vibrates’, by moving the hand rapidly within the fret, from side to side

‘p’   A ‘Pull-Off’, when you pull the finger picking finger off the string, plucking it as released with the fretting finger.
