Intro
Play an A chord while hammering on and off the B string throughout the first two bars in time with the song. 
Listen carefully to the intro to pick up the rhythm before the chords change. After four bars, Bill includes 
this bar strummed in 6/8 rhythm. The entire song has a tricky rhythm which is hard to get used to, but that's 
just a Bill Ryder-Jones song for you I suppose.
