Hello

I have worked today on this great McClennan's song. But, I have some problems with the end of the intro and I need some advices...

I got this for the moment:



E|---2---2--2------5-----5--5---------2--------6----5----5------2-----1b-2---|       
B|---3---3--3---6b----6b----6b-3--3--3-----6b---6b---6b-6b-3---3------------|   
G|---2---2--2-------------------------2--------------------------2------------|   
D|---0------0--(0)--------------------0------0-------------------0-----0------|   
A|---0-----------------------------------0-----------------------0------------|   
E|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------| 


|---3b-----------------0--0--0------1------0--------0--0--0-----1------0---|       
|-------3--3-----------3--3--3------3---3--3--------3--3--3-----3---3--3---|   
|----------------------0--0--0------0----------------0--0--0-----0----------|   
|-------------------------0---------0--------------------0--------0----------|   
|-------------0--1--2-----------2----------2--1--2------------2---------2---|

I have some problems with the end of the intro and I need some advices...

If you're talking about the last measures of the intro where Tommy is concluding his "mmmmmm" phrase and playing the D chord, to me it sounds like he's playing a repeating figure where he is quickly sliding into the D shape (brushing upwards with his index finger, almost snapping the high E string) and following it with a thumb-index-thumb roll (with the thumb brushing two strings simultaneously on the final triplet), something like this:

slide:
-1-/-2------------------------
-2-/-3------------------------
-1-/-2--------0---0-----------
------------------0-----------
----------0-------------------
------------------------------ and repeat

maybe that...

thank you for your response bighollowtwang, now i'm sure that's a D chord...
