- 'or the #() chord, 4ust =ull the little 5inger o55 and then hammer it
back on as you hear it on the song"
- :here 8 ha7e muted the B (3
th
) string on some o5 the chords, you can
4ust as easily not as the chord sounds great with the o=en B too"
- 8n the ?ools @olland Ali7e 7ersion (Damien isnt actually strumming,
he =lays to a backing *D) he misses out the 5irst =art o5 the second
7erse going straight to A$nd so it is the colder waterB using the o=en
#() chord"
- 8ts easier to use the thumb 5or the Abarring o5 the low # string as
your indeC 5inger is o5ten needed higher u="
- The are Duite a 5ew hammer-ons that 8 ha7ent included since they
would ha7e taken too long to write down"
CELLO

to name the notesF
