The Intro is played on just the bottom 4 strings and D is the main anchor chord it starts with an A chord
then you slide your pinky finger up to the 5th fret (relative to capo)...then
hammer on 2nd fret g and e strings then to D then slide your pinky finger to the 7th fret then to
hammer on then off 2nd fret g and e then it finishes with a small walk down(D,Dsus2,Em, Cadd9),G
then into the first verse, this intro is also played at the first interlude but starts
on a Dsus4 and finishes on the slide up to
7th fret, the outro is also the same, it's hard to explain here
but you will soon get the idea when you start this intro and if
you know the song, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8bjo95QKD3c
NOTE: this is NOT the exact version of the intro just similar.
