  • Love what you did and for a beginner I almost have it. The intro you do not show the picking hand. I cannot figure out the timing or strumming sequence. got the rest. As others have asked do you have tabs??? Tks Great Job.

  • The strumming on this is just a down up down up than slide down. As far as tabs I really have no way to show other than the annotations that You Tube allows.Thanks and keep watching.John

  • can you send me the tab for this pls?

    thanks

  • As far as tabs I really have no way to show other than the annotations that You Tube allows.These videos are something I just do on the fly for fun. Thanks and keep watching.John

  • You need to start off with what key your in. I play it in E myself, but the lead is so easy it just came to me the first time I played the song, I find it very interesting that guitarists can't just automatically play this riff it is really easy.

  • Thanks, This is in the key of E, I show this in the caption in the title right off. Thanks John
