Chords

[Tips on playing the intro] (I found it to work the best when): -(When picking/plucking: alternate using your thumb and your first finger) -When playing the Cminor chord at beginning: start with your second finger on the 3rd fret G (on E string) and your third finger on the 3rd fret C (on the A string)
-When transitioning from Cminor to E flat: move your second finger to the 3rd fret Eb on the C string
 and hammer the F-G with your first finger (1st fret on E string) and your third finger (3rd fret on E string)
-When transitioning from E flat to A flat: slide your third finger up one fret onto the 4th fret Ab (on E string) and hammer the Bb-C with your first and second fingers (1st fret to 3rd fret on A string). Stretch your fourth finger to reach the 6th fret Eb (on A string) -Strumming pattern represents plucking pattern; Down arrow is thumb, up arrow is first finger -Can either play intro for all the verses or strum
