Chord diagrams:
Dm G F Em C
x00231 355433 133211 022000 032010
E,B,G,D,A,E = guitar string, p = pull off, h = hammer on,
vvv = vibrato.
When playing the F, Em, C, Em, Dm sequence, play the dominate
note at the beginning of each chord. F,E,C,B,D. It gives it a
little bit of bass sound.
Try the intro (G1) 1 octave higher. You might like it but since
it's played on a 12 string I think you need the A (2) and it's
octave on the G string.
Tabbed from: Fifth Dimension. Original LP form the 60's.
