So you're amazed as to how Dave's rhythm guitar slaps and strums so "perfectly"...but you can't. Ask all things about Dave and his guitars here.

i find billies to be a really easy song. it just depends how you break it up. the first four notes you dont even move your hand for and its the same chord as the nature intro so that should come real fast. then come the three slides in a row which are real simple cause they dont invlove more than three fingers and one always starts where the other leaves off pretty much. this is probably the trickest part for most. just practice those three slides by themselves. start really slow just concentrating on hitting the right frets 100% of the time in time. and speed it up, you should have it in less than twenty minutes if you just build it up. just know the slides start on downbeat right when a word is starting...'above....you....under...' with the first note then and then just slide to the other... for the first fun thorugh in the first verse for the three slides.... then its just back to that first simple one chord. one easy slide and two jokes of a chord at the end. not that im knockin it, amazing riff i coulda never written. best of luck learning it. break it up and start slow.
