Capotraste on 6th fret Tuning: Standard He does a lot of hammer ons. On the strings simultaneously for the Am , chord, e string for chord, If you get a good feel for the song the hammers will come easy for you. Just throw them in when it sounds nice to you, doesn't have to be exact. Also, if you look at the video, he does a cool thing in the intro with the chord. He slides the A string from the 2nd to 3rd fret. It's kind of hard to describe the timing but if you listen to the video and play along you should be able to get the knack of it. He does another thing with the * and play that through the emphasized word in each sentence. Then he'll pull off completely and go to quick, then transition to G. If you watch the video or listen to the song you'll see what I mean. It's perfectly acceptable to just ignore all of this, haha, and play straight chords if you want, it's up to you. These are just nice nuances that he does, and I'd like to share as much in possible just in case somebody is looking up how he does them.
