From the 6, snap quickly to the 5 on the B string,
then lull briefly before you drop to the 4.

I’ve been listening to the song and keep hearing
this strange slide thing going, which sounds kind
of like this:
B—5s4s5——————-
If you hit the 5 a little hard, then drag your finger
to the four and back to the five without striking the
string again with your strumming hand, it should produce
that sound.
p == pull
s == slide
h == hammer-on
v == vibrato
