Hello Old Friend

HELLO OLD FRIEND (Kim Richey)

E|-----------------------------| 

[Actually in F#; capo 4.]
[D/F# = the first time this chord 
comes around in the progression 
(before G),
 there's a hammer-on from 0 to 2 on 
the high E string at the beginning, 
but
 you can't hear it very clearly (if 
at all), because she's accenting the
 low F#.  The second D/F# (after A7)
 is sometimes just plain old D.]
[A7 = at the beginning of the 
measure, hammer-on 0-2 on the D 
string.
 Also, the first half of the measure
 is actually A7sus4 (x02030).]
