on the Am, hammer on the C (fret 1 B string)
and the A (fret 2 G string), then hammer off
the C (fret 1 B string) and switch to the D2.
also the strum changes slightly on the fourth
time, so listen to it.

on the C2, hammer from B to C for the bass
(fret 2 to 3 on A string), then keep going
down in rhythm on the A string from fret 3
to 2 to 0 (open A string), then you switch
to the G chord and hit it twice in the strum.
again, listen to it ...
