Is this strumming pattern correct?

[Intro]
 
A
 
 
[Verse 1]
 
A
You stood before creation
D
eternity in Your hand
A/C#                     F#m
You spoke the earth into motion
            D
My soul now to stand
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
A
You stood before my failure
    D
And carried the cross for my shame
   A/C#                      F#m
My sin weighed upon Your shoulders
            D
My soul now to stand
 
 
[PreChorus]
 
                 D
So what can I say
Bm                 F#m
And what could I do
                    D     E
But offer this heart O God
        F#m      A  E  F#m  D  A  E  F#m
Completely to You
 
 
[Verse 3]
 
   A
So I'll walk upon salvation
     D
Your Spirit alive in me
     A/C#                  F#m
This life to declare Your promise
            D
My soul now to stand
 
 
[Chorus]
 
D         A
So I'll stand
     E             F#m            D
With arms high and heart abandoned
   A          E       F#m        D
In awe of the One who gave it all
       A
I'll stand
    E           F#m
My soul Lord to You surrendered
D       A        E  F#m
All I am is Yours
 
 
[Coda]
                 D
So what can I say
Bm                 F#m
And what could I do
A                  Bm7    E
But offer this heart O God
        F#m
Completely to You

Great job on this man! Love this song. Only this is that they don't play it open, they play it in Capo 2. It doesn't change the key, but simply the chords. Song is still in A, but the chords change as follows (Savoirinme, this will also make it easier to play =P): A -> G D -> C A/C# -> G/B F#m -> Em Bm -> Am E -> D Bm7 -> Am7 This makes it much easier, seeing as there are no bar chords involved (plus it just simply sounds better). Also, during the chorus, it seems to me that an F#m7 instead of F#m, and a D2 instead of a D (so Em7 instead of Em, and a C2 instead of a C, if you're playing it in A on capo 2) sound more appropriate to me (as in, it matches with the melody better). Let me know what you think! Again, awesome tab =D ~Nick~

Yeah nice. Capo 2 sounds good with the chords above ^^. I like playing Asus2 & Dsus2 in the first verse and maybe the other verses. Peace

Click the transpose button and transpose it down two half steps. Then when you play it you can put the capo on 2nd fret to keep it the same key. F#m will become Em and Bm will become Am which are easier chords for beginners
