Strumming

Edit

Is this strumming pattern correct?

[Intro]
| E      | E      | G#m    | G#m    | E      | E      | G#m    | G#m    |
 
 
[Verse 1]
E                           E
Did you come down to give me
            G#m    G#m
Or take me away
      E                         E
I had so many things to tell you
                             G#m    G#m
But now I don't have much to say
     C#m7                         B
This feeling like we're hiding out
                  Asus2    Asus2
Is getting in the way
 
 
[Chorus]
      E
Let's quit the town just look around
        E                        G#m    G#m
There's nothing here to keep us alive
Asus2                     Asus2
If they try to run us down
                     F#sus4    F#sus4
You know I'm on your side
      D6          D6       Asus2    Asus2
And I want you to be my alibi
                   B    B
So they won't find me
                    Asus2/C#    Asus2/C#
And they won't find you
                B/D#    B/D#
And we may tell lies
              Asus2    Asus2
But we may be true
 
 
[Verse 2]
E                           E
Did you come down to take me
            G#m    G#m
Or give me away
      E                        E
I had so many things to ask you
                           G#m    G#m
Now you don't have much to say
          C#m7                 B
And these alchoholic afternoons
                   Asus2    Asus2
Are getting in the way
 
 
[Chorus]
      E
Let's quit the town just look around
        E                        G#m    G#m
There's nothing here to keep us alive
Asus2                     Asus2
If they try to run us down
                     F#sus4    F#sus4
You know I'm on your side
      D6          D6       Asus2    Asus2
And I want you to be my alibi
                   B    B
So they won't find me
                    Asus2/C#    Asus2/C#
And they won't find you
                B/D#    B/D#
And we may tell lies
              Asus2    Asus2
But we may be true
                   B    B
So they won't find me
                    Asus2/C#    Asus2/C#
And they won't find you
                B/D#    B/D#
And we may tell lies
              Asus2    Asus2
But we may be true
 
 
[Outro]
   B    B
Oh-oh
          Asus2/C#     Asus2/C#
I want to be your alibi
   B/D#    B/D#
Oh-oh
               Asus2
Till the day we die
