Repeat above sequence for all verses and interludes.
NOTE:
There are a few little variations, but they're all based
Upon the main Figs.
Remember that when playing with a slide in open tuning,it isn't
esential to hitth notes exactly all the time; it's okay to catch
neighbouring strings too.
Don't be too fussy with it. Be a bit scruffy.
Finally, if you prefer, in place of Fig.3, you can just
strum a B and A at the 7th and 5th respectively.
