Great song that shows how simplicity works. Less is more.
Here's how to play it.


h =hammer on
p =pull off
b =bend string up
/ =slide up
\ =slide down
v =vibrato
t =tap with strumming hand
w =whammy


Many notes in this song involve striking them with the
volume turned down, then turning the volume up. For these
notes I'll place this above them: v>
