Strumming

Edit

Is this strumming pattern correct?

I think I very much need to point out that some of the words in this tab don't make any
but that's the way I hear them.

Wasting another night on planning my revenge

B                      F#
I could fit into my head
  E
I still remember every single
B                            F#
