repeat the next arpegio 4 times: use roll technique when using finger 
1.

//TIP: roll technique is used when using the same finger 2 play the
//same note on different sequential strings, it is done by moving the
//pressure of the finger when moving from string 2 string, 4 example:
//play this with the point finger by laying it on the fret board like
//a bar then start the pressure from the tip of the finger with the 
down
//stroke and move the pressure along with the single stroke that plays 
these
//notes in a sweep or arpegio.If u're playing up stroke move the 
pressure
//towards up.The reason for moving the pressure is 2 mute the string 
Página 7 / 13
after
//moving 2 the next one (the golden rule 4 playing sweeps and 
arpegios).

i'm very sorry guys but it seems that timo tuned his guitar a whole
step down not a half,so to play the three final chords u should do
the same or play your own chords.
