3. MELODY/BASS:


Pulling off/Hammering on with 1st (2nd when bass required) and 3rd (4th

Covering the bassline with your 1st finger while plucking the

4. EXTRAS:

Everynow and again, one of these are chucked in.  He adds in loads of 
stuff at the end too.


E|---7---p0--h7-p0-h5-p0-h5-h7--|--p0--h7-p0-h5-p0-h5-h7--|

G|-----0------------------------|-------------------------| 
D|------0-----------------------|-------------------------| 
A|-------0----------------------|-------------------------| 
E|--------0---------------------|-------------------------| 

That's an upwards strum with the middle index finger,
pulling off with 3rd 'hammering' finger just as you reach
the top of the 'cascade' if you like.
Make it prominent, then leave it to ring into the next bar.

First Bar shows the extra bass bit, I find it's easiest to strum it.
Second Bar shows the outro line for the melody, it's only slightly 
different.
