Meet The Moonlight

	  		Key: G 
Tuning: CGDGBD 

The hardest part will be learning the right hand's plucking + percussion. Every other beat, you will be muting 
only the thumb string with a bit of a percussive slap while tapping another string with another finger.  
The song opens up looping one bar 4 times. Master this bar with the correct right hand technique and the  
rest of the song will follow! 

I personally like finishing without the whole acoustic outro, but there is a baller tab for that by  
Jeff White on Youtube if you want to learn that. 

s: slap 
m: thumb only mute
