Description
As I mentioned in the intro to the tutorial, this song doesn't follow your typical song structure. When I mention the A section of the song I am referring to when you hear the lyric "When there's a burning in your heart", which starts each of these sections.
The third time this section comes around, both of our guitars come in to play some really cool, harmonizing arpeggios. Here's a key point to help you through it:
1. Guitar #1 plays a series of slides and open strings revolving A, D, and E minor. The melody is four bars total, with the second bar ending on an open E string and fourth bar ending on the open B string. This melody is played twice.
