This is one of the first tunes I learned to pick, and it's still one of the last ones I play before hitting the sack at night. This is a fairly straight ahead version that hammers right at the melody, while reaching up the neck a bit in the second half. You're gonna play it in every jam you wade into, and this version will get you used to the water.

That's the one that made me finally understand backup. Stick with it.

Great question. That's a slide going into the B part — I play it as a slide but a hammer-on works fine if that's cleaner for you. Do what sounds right.
