Most of the F-chords have no third (A-note), instead there is a G-note which
drones through almost every chord. This makes fingering of the changes easy.
For C to Fsus2 the middle-finger shifts along the 4th-string and the thumb
adds the bass-note. For Fmaj9 the little-finger lifts off the 1st-string.
INTRO: (let ring)

Lead-lick is a familiar 'double-rhumba' rhythm pattern where the
sixteenths are grouped as 3 + 3 + 3 + 4 thus 123 123 123 123 1234
Cross-picking with accented upstrokes will achieve the right 'feel'.
H = hammer-on
D = down-pick
u = up-pick
Electric plays distinctive accents:
