NOTE >: Figure 1 is played as follows - 1h3p1p0
Figure 1 begins on the downbeat of the measure, so the 
note on the first fret of the B
string is played at
the same time as the note on the third fret of the E 
string. You play the first two
notes with a pinch, and this is the only pluck you use.
 The rest of the notes in the figure
are achieved with hammer-ons and
pull-offs. If there is any confusion consult the video 
-

An easier version of this figure can be played as 
follows - 0h1p0

The timing is the same for both the actual and the easy
 figure.

                                 Variations

Sometimes instead of F, Jansch just repeats E.

For the first B in each verse, Jansch plays the 
following:
