This is my first tab, I'm not really good at listening to chords but I tried to and it sounds good for me.
You should play it mainly on bass strings E, A, D and sometimes G.
You can message me if something is wrong. Enjoy and have fun.
 
Capo on 3rd, Standard tuning
(Whole song is Em, C, G)
 
Em C G G  [2x]
 
[Verse 1]
Em                       C                  G
We're all falling and we need a place to hide
  Em                          C                        G
A safe place somewhere in THE WOODS, we can start a fire
Em                        C         G
All we know is what would be our home
         Em      C                G
We will stay till the break of dawn
 
Em C G G [2x]
 
[Verse 2]
    Em                       C                      G
The cold night takes us to a place to escape the chill
Em                          C                G
Tucked up, somewhere in the woods, on a hill
Em                      C                   G
Wake up, feeling the cold in between our toes
           Em       C           G
Is there a way back? Nobody knows.
 
[Pre-Chorus]
        Em*   C*         G*
And we lea--ve it all behind
           Em*  C*              G*
Can't you se---e we need some time?!
 
[Chorus]
       Em                  C
And we all sit around the fire,
      G
We feel a little warmer now
       Em                  C
And we all sit around the fire,
      G
We feel so much better now!
 
[Instrumental]
Em C G G [4x]
Em* C* G* G* [2x]
 
[Chorus]
       Em                  C
And we all sit around the fire,
      G
We feel a little warmer now
       Em                  C
And we all sit around the fire,
      G*
We feel so much better now!
 
       Em                  C
And we all sit around the fire,
      G
We feel a little warmer now
       Em                  C
And we all sit around the fire,
      G*
We feel so much better now!

Hey what’s the strumming pattern?

Not sure what song you're listening to but the progression is C, G, D/F# relative to capo 2 for the palm muted rhythm guitar. When you play the finger picked guitar in the background you would play a regular D instead. I also like to add a Em to the end of the progression during the "and we all sit around the fire" parts, but I think its just implied in the recording.

If I were to play this song by myself, without another guitarist to play the fingerstyle part over the top, I would play it D, A, E, palm muted to your liking and down-strummed with a pick. This is what sounds closest to the recording to me, and it works throughout the song.
