I've sussed that tricky part at the beginning of the intro. The first row of tab looks like this: E ------0--0--0---------------0-0-----------0-------------------------------- B -0--3----------3-0--0---0-3--------(0)--------3--0-----0------------0----0- G ------3--3------------------3-3(3)---(3)----------(0)---(0)------(0)0----0- D -----------------2--2------------(2)---(2)-(2)---2--(2)2--(2)--(2)---(2)(0) A --------------------------------------------------------------------------- E ---------------------(0)-------------------------------------(0)---(0)-----
