note: derek adds a lot of hammers all
over the place, and it would take forever
to label every single one, so just listen
the recording for that ...

on the Am, hammer on the C (fret 1 B string)
and the A (fret 2 G string), then hammer off
the C (fret 1 B string) and switch to the D2.
also the strum changes slightly on the fourth
time, so listen to it.

C2(hammered/moving bass) - G

on the C2, hammer from B to C for the bass
(fret 2 to 3 on A string), then keep going
down in rhythm on the A string from fret 3
to 2 to 0 (open A string), then you switch
to the G chord and hit it twice in the strum.
again, listen to it ...
