BPM: 200

    This song is plucked with a very simple alternation of thumb, index, thumb, index.
    However, he does some interesting things with hammers and pull-offs to make a very
    cool sound.
    Verses repeat these two measures throughout. The pull-off notes are a bit weird—you
    pull off the second fret on the D string only after picking the open B string                                                                                            Chorus goes like this:

Switch any track between tablature, standard notation and note names — or show them stacked, aligned bar for bar. The same score, in whichever language you read fastest.

Practice Tools

Slow the tempo until a passage sits under your fingers, set the play range to loop the bar you keep missing, and mute the tracks you want to play yourself.
