This is my first ever tab and can't find any tabs to show how he plays it live, any constructive feedback
would be appreciated.
This picking pattern is 6-3-2-3 throughout the whole song. When the D and Am chord is played the picking is 4-
3-2-3. The timings should come along easy when listening to the song.
