This intro is very useful to have a fast track. It is based on American folk song "Old Kentucky Home", made by many artists in styles ranging from jazz to country. The style I chose is the rag, which is a kind of ragtime ( father of jazz, eg "The Entertainer" by Scott Joplin), but with a longer wave country (listen to Steve Howe and Chet Atkins) as well (which is not the same as rag) could call country-jazz.
The outline of the song are pretty basic chords (I, IV, V7) distributed as follows:
: AAAADDAAAAAA E7 E7 E7 E7:
Any change in the bar 2 may be:
D D D7 AA or AA Ebdim
which gives it a more bluesy and jazzy tinge to progression.
Here are the first 9 bars (not 8 as the imitation of bar 8 requires more time for resolution):
Ideally touch with your fingers: thumb for the low, middle and ring index for chords, trying to make an attack "piano", ie not be noticed but sounding arpeggiated attacked at the same time, if you touch it with a pick, I recommend using "hybrid picking" with the sustained pick with thumb and forefinger, while the remaining fingers do the work of chords. As you see, is favored in this first part of the sixth to bring the melody.
