Solo notes, step by step:
a. Slide over fret w/ 2nd finger up INTO 4th fret
b. 1st finger
c. 3rd finger, then pick note a second time and bend
up full note to F# probably take all three fingers to
bend full note
d. 3rd finger, pick note still bent up to F#, then
release bend letting
	note ring as it drops back down to natural E tone on
5th fret
e. Nothing special
f. Nothing special
g. Nothing special
h. 3rd finger, a 3 finger country bend, a full note up
from D at 7th fret stretched up to E
i. 1st finger at 5th fret.  A pedal tone
j. The release of the 3-finger bend.  Fingers are
still at 7th fret but note is bent up a full note
interval from D note to E note.  Here you are quickly
releasing the bend to ~Qpull~R the note from E, to D
k. Nothing special
l. 1st finger at 2nd fret, slid quickly while note is
playing up to 4th fret
m. ~Qm~R through ~Qr~R are basically repeats of the ~Qa~R
through ~Qg~R riff.
   e-g. Nothing special, just single picked
   s.  A 3-finger bend with third finger on 7th fret
(D note), bent full note
       up to E note
t. The pedal tone note with 1st finger on 5th fret
u. The ~Qhome~R note for resolution, with 3rd finger on
7th fret and string natural not bent up from D to E
note.
