Highway 61 Revisited
I learned this version of a Dylan classic off of a Jerry Garcia & John Kahn acoustic set bootleg. Jerry takes it the next step, but he also adds on some pretty classic licks. Be sure to sustain on the E at the end of the third line. Don't be scared to jazz it up a bit.
h = hammer-on
p = pull-off
