third and fifth fingers together.

You wanna play the whole chord first,

00:00:16,185  -->  00:00:21,452
the third and fifth together,

00:00:21,452  -->  00:00:25,756
Your left hand's going to play
a single chord note one octave left,

00:00:25,756  -->  00:00:30,227
the root note, and it's going to be
held over the right hand pattern.
