Possum
Phish
E
1st 2nd fret
(2nd finger = your middle finger, 1st = your index finger, etc.)
The idea is that you use lift off and hammer on your 2nd finger to rock
between Em, E and Esus4 in a riff like this (switching to tab notation)
Em Esus4 E
H H HThe Em is played for about 8th-note duration; the overall chord is an E and the G (open G string) of the Em and the sus4 are nothing more than passing tones. Trey does some other stuff here, mostly noodling around on these chords, that I'm not going to write out, but listen to any recording and he'll do something different yet interesting; I'll just show the underlying chords below.
