for the D fingerpicking pattern, keep hitting your low D open on each beat. on the

upbeat on your high D string it's ascends by a tone (two frets) basically by each bar, then

it does the 5-4-2-0 thing. listen and you'll get it. don't be afraid to use your G

string (which you should have your 2nd fret down on when appropriate!) to mix it up after that

point and before the next set of lyrics. and keep hitting both your D strings too, so

you can go diddling with that G string (yes, i totally meant to say that phrase exactly as

i did). don't limit yourself to two fingers while fingerpicking! use as many as you can.

it stays as a D until the song is over. please use this opportunity to make it as epic

as you can, but for my sake keep those alternating open D's going. use all your fingers!

and when you want to end it you can cheap out and just play your two D's together. but

if you wanna impress your friends, make it a fast arpeggio with a nice D or Dsus2 chord

using all 5 fingers.

you could do a couple of cool cadences. the most predicable one is A7 (x02020) to D. if

you want to go the cadence route but you don't like predicability of it, do your A7 but

throw in some F#-G and back again notes in there, then end it with a D the way that i've

suggested you voice it throughout the tab. or you can slow down the main riff as you play

it and end with a fully voiced D. or even bring the E7 back into it! yes, most of them

sound cheesy, but if you're lacking an extra 2 guitars and a string section you gotta

make do sometimes.
