The intro is outlined in bars 1 and 2. It’s a simple alternating pattern between the first finger (i) and thumb (p) – just take it slowly at first as you gradually develop your timing.
In bar 3 (that’s verse 1) you’ll need to play a ‘pinch’ – where two notes are played simultaneously with your first finger and thumb.
