Two quick notes, when Dustin plays his Am he likes to embellish it by hammering
the open G string to the A, and on rollup to chorus the sequence is
e|--2--3--5--|
B|--3--3--3--|
G|--2--2--2--|
D|--0--0--0--|
A|-----------|
E|-----------|
Played slightly upbeat, to help maintain rhythm when you slap strings for beat,
strum as you hit the guitar (little Jack Johnson trick).
