lyric: "sure of myself..."
the notes between the <> are harmonics. where they are really close
together (555) you pick them staccato-style (i.e., really fast and
herky jerky). he never really plays this the same way twice. at the
end just don't follow the pattern i have here; just sort of whack the
strings a bit.
0h4 = play 0 and hammer on to 4
also, when those notes are ringing at the end, once in a while he
likes to pull his tremolo bar a tiny bit to make the notes waver out
of pitch

4b5r4 = play 4, bend up to the same pitch as 5, then release the bend
back to 4
after the last note vibrate the string a bit, or jiggle the tremolo
there's a second guitar in the background, making little incidental
noises
