New guitar lesson, you will learn how to play man just like me. I am not the greatest, I am not the worst but I do what I do and I let teach people about this stuff so here we go.
So, first we are going to start up with the first riff. This is kind of a difficult song to do but we are going to go really slow with it and then you are going to learn a bit better when you go slow because that is how you got to work. When you learn a guitar you got to work slow man.
So, first chord is going to be on the G string. It is a hammer on. So there we go, second fret, open and then see, there is no hands here. that is a hammer off on that to the G and then it is,
[Demonstration]
See those hammer off?

So, then we go to the D.
[Demonstration]
So, keep working until you get it. Keep doing that, rewind it if you have to but you got to keep working on that. I am going to do it slow one more time for you. if you can match this then you can move on to the next part.
[Demonstration]
And that is just the D. That last part. So get that and then we will move on to the next part. So then, it goes to the next part is it goes,

Got to use your hammer on and hammer off.

And then see that D, to go to the next part you got to slide that up here.

Same D shape.
