D/F#                 `

D/F#          `

PICKING PATTERN:
Generally rising arpeggios in sixteenths
Extra bass note on Beat-2+ often utilises an open string as a passing note.

   G/B                Right Hand
   1 e + a 2 e + a    Fingering
E|-----------------|
B|-------0---------|  <- ring
G|-----0-----------|  <- middle
D|---0-------0---0-|  <- index
A|-2-------2---0---|  <- thumb
E|-----------------|  <- thumb

The picking pattern varies throughout the piece - TAB below
demonstrates some of the basic ideas used in each section.

h = hammer on
p = pull off
/ = slide
