After this is repeated for the last time, just play the last note (a G on the fifth fret of the low D string) and let it sustain. Notes: (in order that they appear) - 5___ - let particular note sustain | |-----------| | - |*|-----------|*| - repeat this segment the specified number of |*|-----------|*| times. Note that \"repeat 5x\" does NOT mean | |-----------| | PLAY 5x. When something is specified as \"repeat 5x,\" that particular riff is played SIX TIMES overall!
