whilst Stitches (rhythm) plays ambient noises in the key of A , including bends:

Notes:
.All the chords are played as bar chords. A = Fret 5 on E , C#min = Fret 4 on A , Dmaj7 = Fret 5 on A
F#min (Fret 9) and E (Fret 7) are also played from the A string execpt -
The 2nd bar in the intro section , where the F#min is played from the E string (fret 2) and the E is open
.The tip with the lead is to let the notes ring out enough. If playing , use a reverb and a slight delay
.Stitches actually plays this song without a pick using finger picking on most sections. However a pick can
still be used , aswell as then hybrid picking depending on ur playstyle
.In the acoustic section where you have to use finger picking or hybrid picking , I would recomend using your
pinky and 4th finger as this makes the melody less stressfull overall on the fingers when learnt
.In the 2nd verse , Stitches improvises this section a lot , in particular over the end of the 1st bar and
throughout the 2nd.
