Listen to the song, hopefully you can figure out the muted strums and slides
yourself
but I'm gonna try as best I can to tab this part out for you; you can either play
the
D, D + A, or D + A + D strings. Also listen for the timing, it is essential to
the piece

The improv is easy to pick out, a lot of it is sliding in key along the 4th (high
D)
string with intermittent notes on the 6th (low D) string. As well as some two
string
sliding on the 2nd (high A) string and 3rd (F#) string. Having fun with this
is necessary to making this song unique so play with some licks.
