Key:
h hammer on
p pull off
x muted note
S slapping hand
M middle finger on fretboard hand
slide down
The easiest way to explain how to play this song and get the right sound for the intro/verse
is to rest your slapping hand on your strings close to the bridge. the "x" mutes should be
muted this way and also you should be using your middle finger on your "fretboard" hand.
(the muted notes on the E string are played on the third fret)
The notes played on the G string in the verse/chorus are muted as well. It's played on the
actual fret of the G string, between the 2nd and 3rd fret.
Hopefully this isn't confusing as hell.

Ok, for this part, the x's represent tapping down the fretboard with your slapping thumb
on the E string, starting around the 12th fret.
