Okay the main ostinato pedal you can hear on this piece is actually played on
a harpsichord but there is a way on the guitar that you can emulate that sound.
Hold this chord (use your thumb for the first note)
e|0| e|-----0---------0------0-----------|
B|5| B|-----5---------5------5-----------|
G|7| G|---------7---7------------7---7---|
D|7| D|---7---7---7--------7---7---7---7-|
A|0| A|-5----------------5---------------|
E|5| Then play this pattern: E|-5----------------5---------------|
It's played repeatedly throughout the whole song with the exception of some
instrumental breaks with drum fils.
