The fingering on the sheet music indicates the D at the beginning of beat 2 should be played on string 4, but that string is already occupied by a held A from the previous beat. This tab reflects the fingering rather than the notes. * Measure 18 is also impossible to play as written. This tab again reflects the fingering rather than the notes. * The first beat of measures 32 and 33 has a different quantum (32nd vs 16th notes) to accommodate the only 32nd notes in the song. === held note p pull-off h hammer-on > accented note - tenuto = accented and tenuto ( arpeggiate ) /.\ fermata ff fortissimo (very loud) f forte (loud) mf mezzo forte (medium loud) mp mezzo piano (medium soft) p piano (soft) pp pianissimo (very soft) mfz mezzo forzando (between mf and f) sub. subito (suddenly) rall. rallentando (slow down) riten. ritenuto (immediately slow down) <5> natural harmonic - play open string, touch point on 5th fret <7> natural harmonic - play open string, touch point on 7th fret <9> natural harmonic - play open string, touch point on 9th fret <12> natural harmonic - play open string, touch point on 12th fret [5] artificial harmonic - play indicated fret, touch point on 17th fret
