The Road Unfolds

Today, we’re diving into the heart of our song—the main lick that repeats throughout the piece. This lick is what gives the song its signature sound, so once you’ve got it down, you’ll already have a big chunk of the tune under your fingers.

The coolest part about this lick is the pull-off technique, which adds that smooth, flowing feel to your playing. If you’ve never done pull-offs before, don’t stress! We’ll take it slow and break it down into easy steps. Pull-offs can feel a bit awkward at first, but with a little practice, they’ll become second nature.

You’ll also notice that this lick uses some of the same finger patterns from yesterday’s exercise—that’s not by accident. Those patterns are the building blocks of real music. This is why practice exercises matter—they’re secretly preparing your fingers for the songs you want to play.

So, take it slow today. Focus on making each pull-off clean and clear—the speed will come with time.
