Wouldn't it technically be a little better to delay the 5th activation until the middle of measure 104, so it runs out right after the yellow note at the beginning of measure 112? That way you get that little solo in there.

I cannot for the life of me figure out the part of the song at measure 89 etc, that fast descending run. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!




I don't exactly rock this song, but that part is not too bad.

Fret O with pinky and strum, then Y B with middle and ring fingers - no strum needed, R Y with index and middle, then shift down and do G R with index and middle again. Remember to strum the final yellow!

If changing fingers get you and you don't mind shifting up, fret O with ring finger and YB, RY and GR with index and middle, always shifting down a fret. That way the fingers can just repeat a pattern.

I usually hit notes more accurately with my left hand when I strum as well, so I usually strum the first notes of the "HO pairs".


Yeah I've figured out the best fingerings for me, I still can't do it fast enough or consistent enough. I guess I should keep practicing!

By playing around with squeezing/whammying the first activation, I was able to get the first R in 23 under SP, and some of the G hold in 29 under SP. Is it possible to activate on the G in 23 and still make the G hold in 29?

It's virtually the same thing. Your's is one note better, but it's a lot harder to get the perfect timing on the squeeze to get that last note.
