=============================================================
Kevin Cherry's note on synthesizer arrangement:

Starts out on a synth, but using two guitars:

Guitar 1:

Finger
e x
B x
G 10
D 10
A 8
E x

Pick quickly A-A-D-D-G-G-D-D-A-A-D-D-G-G-D-D (all sixteenth notes) over and
over
(Technically, this is until the end of the song, when the violin comes in.)


Guitar 2:

Finger:
e 13
B 13
G 10
D x
A x
E x

Pick quickly G-G-B-B-e (The G and B strings are played as sixteenth, the e
is picked as an eighth)
