if you wrote out the tab it would be a lot easier to understand.

The first time I heard a Beatles song was "Let It Be." Some little kid was singing along with it: "Let it pee, let it pee" and pretending he was taking a leak. Hey, that's what happened, OK?-some guy

Try resting your index finger on the 10th fret, hitting the 13th fret with your ring finger and
bending the 12th on the G with your middle finger. As for keeping the strings quiet you may want to work
on resting your picking on hand on the strings that aren't being played. Just some thoughts.
