Play it twice before to start Verse 1

On the first pass, do not touch the D string. On the second pass, you can use it to add more color.
Do not touch E and A strings.

There is a solo played with the mandoline sound after Verse 2.
Here is an idea on how to play it (on how I play it in fact, doh).
