Strumming

There is no strumming pattern for this song yet. Create and get +5 IQ
Naturally, this isn't going to really reflect how the song sounds...
Please note that there are multiple key changes, so if I have an A#m instead of a
Bbm, please forgive me.

Intro: C#, A#m, F#, G#
 
C#
Digits dial, digits dial...tone, monotone
    A#m
Has she been feigning sleeping?
 
Framing sheep and all alone?
F#
Downside on the sidewalk,
 
I'm a distant ring
       G#
Out of body, out of body,
 
Pick me up, oh answer me
 
C#
I just hurry over
 
Worried sick
 
And hoping, sick.
A#m
Gates are courting airplanes,
 
and clocks divorcing ticks
         F#
Before I left, thought I'd see you
 
At the show, you didn't show
       G#
Didn't message, didn't call
 
You didn't know, didn't you know?
 
      A#m
I'm a liar too
                     Gm
Uh huh, that's why I think I understand you
A#m
Someone from your building holds for me a door
            F
I'm in your lobby, your elevator
 
I'm on your floor, the second floor
 
      A#m
I can hear you now
        Gm
With my ear pressed to the vent
       A#m
You're playing that cassette tape
F                                Cm F
That you took from me to take to Iowa
             Cm               G#
And that was near three years ago
        F#
Now I'm back up in that moment
G#                        C#
Playing that yardsale Casio
 
          C#
I sang to you from a red room
                A#m
(Together we'll grey, grey, grey)
        F#
Does he sing to you as well?
     G#
Much better, most would say
 
           C#
I hear him laughing
         A#m
But I prefer this to the silence
          F#
When your lips are sealed against his
 
Or he fills your thighs with kisses
            G#
Or just for instance
 
He's clawing your fat,
 
Pushing your breaths into the mattress
 
              A#m
You'll love a good many men, mmhmm
           Gm
And loving me ain't gonna stop all of them
     A#m
Like Adam we are flawed
 
In the image of our gods
       F
Of our fathers, who never bothered
                              A#m
To consider they were not the only ones
 
 
Faith, ohhhh,
         Gm
Faith oh faith, is a way to believe lies we need
           A#m
Then to be faithful is to be truthless
 
But that's more than I need to say
        F
Oh just don't run off and get married
 
And I'll surely be okay
 
       Cm     F
'Cause I love you
               Cm        G#
They'll love a good many yous
      F#
Gotta go now
 
Pack my suitcase
 
Glad that you're okay,
      G#
And I love you, happy birthday,
                    C#
See you in sixteen days.

This sounds great actually! I thought it would be impossible to do but I think you nailed it. The only thing that sounded incorrect to me is that I think the A#m's after the F's should be A# majors. none the less , 5* for sure!!
