How to learn the intro tab
Start off by realizing you have these two chord shapes:
E ––2–––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––2––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––
B ––3–––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––3––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––
G ––0–––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––2––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––
D –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––
A –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––
E –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––
1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 +
D/G D/A
Then add arpeggios based off these shapes:
E ––––––2–––––––2–––––––2–––––––2–––––––2–––––––2–––––––2–––––––2––––
B ––––3–––––––3–––––––3–––––––3–––––––3–––––––3–––––––3–––––––3––––––
G ––0–––––––0–––––––0–––––––0–––––––2–––––––2–––––––2–––––––2––––––––
D –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––
A –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––
E –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––
1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 +
D/G D/A
Then, add the important note on the high-E string (played with the first and third arpeggio for each chord):
E ––2–––2–––––––2–––2–––2–––––––2–––2–––2–––––––2–––2–––2–––––––2––––
B ––––3–––––––3–––––––3–––––––3–––––––3–––––––3–––––––3–––––––3––––––
G ––0–––––––0–––––––0–––––––0–––––––2–––––––2–––––––2–––––––2––––––––
D –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––
A –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––
E –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––
1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 +
