> For the first chord, barre across the 8th fret.
> For the melody, add the note on the ist string 10th fret.
> Then barre across 7th fret.
> Then again on the 8th fret.
> Then 1st string 12th fret, 2nd string 10th fret ( also play the low
open D string here)

notes and you should get it eventually.

Sorry for late reply, Pat!

But thanks.

In the meantime, someone has posted an excerpt from the piece on You Tube, sol I’ll put the two together at some point.

Cheers
