This song is surprisingly simple, especially if you are already familiar with
Travis picking (Google it if you want to learn). I based this off of what I hear
in both the recorded and acoustic versions.
Tips:
1. Keep your index finger on xxxx1x for the whole song. I believe that's how
it's played the whole way through.
2. It's essentially a bass walk-down. If you keep that in mind, it becomes a lot
easier to transition since the focus is on the bass note.
3. If you want to play like the acoustic versions, learn how to use the Travis
picking form from Kansas' "Dust in the Wind"
