It appears that Mike has been practicing a bit since Morning View and has honed

his sweep picking skills to the next level. Check out the bridge and you'll see

Bridge

4 measures rest

After the first hammer-on, you have to sweep up the next three notes

while palm muting. This sweeping part appears a bunch of times.

[rhythmic subdivisions are doubled to make this bit easier to read]
