Could I get a critique on my first lilypond tab?

Anything anyone wants to tell me about better slicker more elegant ways
of doing the same things would be awesome. 

I'm attaching the lilypond file for Let Him Roll, a Guy Clark talking
blues.  He essential plays the same thing over and over.  What I've got
covers the main two variations.

I couldn't find anything that covered hammering and pulling with H and P
either under or over the tab or on the slur line, so just followed the
suggestion to use an appoggiatura for a hammer for something that
switched notes on the beat, and a grace notey sort of thing for a quick
hammer that just borrowed a bit from the beginning of the note for the
original note before the hammer.

I'm not sure how you would know the difference between a hammer and a pull.

You'll see my attempt to put H at appropriate places doesn't work. 
Apparently a TabStaff is missing whatever engraver would put them in?  I
can put them in the regular staff, and it works, tucking them under the
Chords, but it's not at all what I want.  Help!!!;)
