   **  Sandwich in between main riffs

   NOTES on main riff:

   1  Leave no fingers on the fretboard here.  Get into position
        for the next two-note chord.

   2  Using the higher F is a form of cheating, but when played up
        to speed the octave change is hidden.  This is the main trick
        of the piece.

   3  The measure actually starts with the hammered-on C.  I didn't
        include the bar only because it looked hard to read that way.

   4  It takes extra practice to move the left index finger from
        the second-string C to the sixth-string F.  Same as bar 2.

   5  This is the same high E as the first note in the main riff, so
        you can see that the timing is not exact.  I hope you can get
        the idea through the feel of this rather than exact notation.

   NOTES on Verse:

   6  Set the left index finger on the second-string C now, and use
        the pinky for the D.  The ring finger can handle the bass G.

   7  Same as note 4.

   8  Use a full first-fret barre to fret both the second and sixth
        strings.  Keep the ring finger on the A while changing this.

   9  Syncopate the bass with the melody here.

  10  The second verse has an extra 4 bars.  Make it up as I'm getting
        tired of doing this.

   FINGERING:

   I find it easier to use the pinky to fret the low G on the first
   four measures, and to use the thumb for the F. Please don't flame
   this part; I have had lessons but sometimes expediency prevails over
   theoretical technique.  This keeps the right hand in a good position
   for doing both melody and the step-down bass.
