I am learning the song on my acoustic guitar and the part at the beginning where you do the hammer-on, I can't seem to do it. The sound just stops on the guitar most of the time so when I try to make that sound it does not work.

If you cant do the hammer on then practice that separately

Practicing things you find difficult in isolation is good advice, but if you upload audio of you playing it or video of your hand we might be able to help with your technique. It could also be the action is high, which makes fretting more difficult

Okay thanks for the info! I will upload a video here if I can't end up doing it after a while.

Yeah I can't seem to do hammer-on. Why is that? Here is a video.

you aren't focusing enough on playing in time, rather than up to speed

All right, I will try slower and keep practicing with it until I can get it to sound right.

Bro you are doing the hammer on perfectly
Your messing up the pull off
When you are pulling off dont jst take ur finger directly off the string
Push the string down as your taking it off
Just experiment around with it and see what works for you
frosty fern
Yeah I am trying, I don't pull off the strings though. I do push.
frosty fern
I have been trying and still not working. Hmmm :/

What tempo?
frosty fern
Hold on so it seems I can do it better when I curl my fingers but it's very hard to curl my figners at the right way to make it work.
As for the tempo, it's pretty fast.

@frosty fern please play it slower
frosty fern
I understand, I try slower but that don't work really as the sound runs out too fast.
But if I curl my fingers it helps quite a bit but it is not easy at all.

it doesnt
just play it at a slower tempo in time

no one said it's easy. but its very doable, and it feels very fun to play when you get it
