This is just the basic intro riff to Brad's new single River Bank. To achieve the tone, I would suggest a compressor,
 slight slapback delay, and a little bit of overdrive. Brad's actually relatively clean, so it doesn't take much gain. 
I suggest approaching this song by not letting any of the notes ring out. Listen to the timing and you can hear it's used
 almost percussively. Each of the notes are played quickly and without any sustain. This intro is for what Brad plays only,
none of what Gary is playing is included. Feedback is much appreciated!

*I suggest using your middle finger to *POP* the D & A strings to give it that extra chickin-pickin feel.*

5\7/5 = Pick the D and slide to the E, then back to the D in one motion. Timing is key here



Repeat main riff 4 times:

E|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
B|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
G|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
D|-----5--5--3------------------5--5--3----------------------5-5-----------------5-5---
A|------------------5\7/5--------------------5\7/5-----------5-5-----------------5-5---
E|--3------------3----------3-----------3--------------------3-3-----------------3-3---
                                                         
                                                     Well, I won two dollars on scratch-off ticket...




After watching Brad play it a few times live, this is the way that he plays it. It sounds the same either way, 
whichever is more comfortable for you. This one is a bit easier using hybrid-picking. The first slide from F# to G is very 
quick, and BP alternates it. You can do it without the slide and just play the note.
