Problem Tips:

These big sounding drone chords are not as hard to figure out as everyone thinks. Really if you find the root notes most of it is pretty simple from there as the majority of the notes in these chords are open strings.

I have thrown one twist in this one. All of the chords are the same shape, except 1. If you don't get it no big deal but the ones who are getting good at this will figure it out just fine. The trick is to figure out the single note riffing portion. If you do that you will have it.

Take it slow and remember to single out the notes of these chords but also because they are big open string drone chords like the ones used in poundcake for example, remember the way they sound so when you hear them you don't freak out and think you'll never learn the song. It's not that big a deal. Just like I said, find the root notes and go from there.
