On the Intro and between verses Noah slides up the B string from 3rd fret to 5th
and back again between the Em and G chords.
Then hammers on the B string on 1st fret then off again on the G chord.
Before hammering on the D string on 2nd fret on the C chord.
I've tried to show this above - probably not very well.
Also plenty of C chord variation throughout the song. Lots of hammering on n'stuff.
There's a nice video on youtube where you can see/hear it. Should be able to work
it out from that.
