I have simplified the riff structure to suit smaller hands. I added more accurate solo parts including the hammer-ons and pull-offs. The Second chorus features dead notes which i added positions to. I also found the key.Was this info helpful?
Difficulty: intermediate
Tuning: D A D G B E
Key: Dm
Capo: no capo
