Is this strumming pattern correct?

[Intro]
 
| G   | B7  | Em  | C   |
| G   | D   | D   |
 
 
[Verse 1]
 
G                     D                     Em
  He wore that cowboy hat to cover up his horns
G                      D                       Em
  Sweet talking forked tongue had a tempting charm
C                    D                  Em
  Before I turned around that girl was gone
C                     D                          G
  All I can say is bartender pour me something strong
 
 
[Chorus]
 
D                               Em
  Here's to the past, they can kiss my glass
   C                     G
I hope she's happy with him
D                         Em
  Here's to the girl who wrecked my world
      C                D
that angel who did me in
G                            B7
  I think the devil drives a Coupe de Ville
Em                         C
  I watched him drive away over the hill
     G                         D
Not against her will, I've got time to kill
C         D         G
  Down in Brokenheartsville
 
 
[Instrumental]
 
|(G)  | B7  | Em  | C   |
| G   | D   | D   |
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
G                 D                      Em
  It was long and chrome sitting in the lot
G             D                   Em
  Fire engine red, that thing was hot
C               D                Em
  He revved it up, she waved goodbye
C                 D               G
  Love's gone to hell and so have I
 
 
[Chorus]
 
D                               Em
  Here's to the past, they can kiss my glass
   C                     G
I hope she's happy with him
D                         Em
  Here's to the girl who wrecked my world
      C                D
that angel who did me in
G                            B7
  I think the devil drives a Coupe de Ville
Em                         C
  I watched him drive away over the hill
     G                         D
Not against her will, I've got time to kill
C         D         G
  Down in Brokenheartsville
 
 
[Chorus]
 
D                               Em
  Here's to the past, they can kiss my glass
   C                     G
I hope she's happy with him
D                         Em
  Here's to the girl who wrecked my world
      C                D
that angel who did me in
G                            B7
  I think the devil drives a Coupe de Ville
Em                         C
  I watched him drive away over the hill
     G                         D
Not against her will, I've got time to kill
C         D         G
  Down in Brokenheartsville

Sounds to be capo on 3

if you are in standard tuning, put a capo on the 3rd fret. and the B should E|-2-| B|-0-| Also Called B7 i think G|-2-| D|-1-| A|-2-| E|-X-| I hope this tabbed out right. Other than that it's great

in the 3rd line the d is supposed to be on the Word around, not turned (i think)
