you can use the strum to imitate the mandolin
playing in the background on the down strokes
hold the A-string th fret twice then lift it

chord is being held down then on the last down
stroke do the same as the first two only
pressing the 3rd fret A-string If that didn't

shown and add the th and 3rd fret A-string
