The main guitar riff of the choruses played in A in fretted with the Middle
and Ring fingers. While this rings the E (fret 2, G string) is fretted with the
Index finger and, the F# (fret 4, G string) is fretted with the Pinky finger.
Take note of the upstroke immediately after F# for it makes the riff flow a
bit more smoothly and also requires the lifting of the Middle finger.
