version 7
Tuning: E A D G B E
This intro riff is played over all
verses and choruses - only the
instrumental break is different.
Watching this played live, the
guitarist doesn't hammer on in the
G chord - he plays those notes
fretted - but I find I get the
punchy sound of the riff notes more
easily this way.
