So I've been playing for a while, and a well-known (almost cliche) piece has been eluding me. I've always tried to learn the beginning of nothing else matters by Metallica, and I've pinpointed a spot that always trips me up in the intro. This is the part:


E---------0-----0--0--0-
B-------5-------5--5--5-
G-----5---------5--5--5-
D---------------------------
A--0------------0--2--3-
E---------------------------


The 0 - 2 - 3 part on the "A" string is a tough reach for me to make and it always kills the songs flow when I try to do it. I guess what I'm looking for is what fingers go where on this part. Should my pinky and ring fingers cover the G and B strings while I reach with my index for the A string changes?
Blues is easy to play, but hard to feel.
