Here he plays infinite variations on the main chord sequence. He throws in little scalar runs, minor to major thirds, chordal slides and plenty of 7ths. It's an encyclopedia of cool stuff. I've alternated open A's with fretted ones on the 6th string to facilitate shifts. For the E-diad slide in Rhy. Fig 7 (line 3) make a steady slide all the way up. There are a few points here I'm not quite sure about. Again, in Rhy. Fig 7 (line 14) there are a bunch of acsending chords that sound OK but not quite right. I just can't seem to get them. Key: / = slide up \ = slide down b = bend (whole step) b^ = bend (1/2 step) b^^ = bend (1 1/2 steps) pb = pre-bend r = release-bend t = tap with righthand finger h = hammer-on p = pull-off ~ = Vibrato * = Natural Harmonic #(#) = Trill ** = Artificial Harmonic x = Dead notes (no pitch) P.M. = Palm mute (- -> underneath indicates which notes) (\) = Dive w\bar (/) = Release w\bar Tp = Tap w\plectrum
