alt. chorus part
you can do it with some easier slides like this G|-------------------------|-------------------------| D|-------5-/8--------------|-------------------------| A|-6-----------------5-/8--|-------0-/3-------3-/6---| E|-------------6-----------|-1----------4------------| or get rid of the slides entirely G|-------0--3--------------|-------------------------| D|-1-----------------0--3--|-------------------------| A|-------------1-----------|-------0--3-------3--6---| E|-------------------------|-1----------4------------|
the way i wrote it in the tab sounds the most accurate to me, but some people might have some trouble with it
********
/ = slide up
\ = slide down
h = hammer-on
