Strumming

Edit

Are these strumming patterns correct?

[Intro]
F    D    x2
 
 
[Verse 1]
          F
  Well I went through my list of friends and found
         D
  I had no one to tell
          F
  Of this overwhelming clean feeling
      D
  Strange serenity
          Am
  When I saw the girl looked just like me
           F
  And it broke my heart, the lengths you went
      G
  To hold me
Dm
  To get to have me, 'cause
 
 
[Chorus]
Am                E
  I haven’t given you what you need
F                   C
  You wanted me but couldn’t reach me
Am                 E
  So you went into your memory-relived
  F                C
  All the ways you still want me
Am                E              F
  I haven’t given you what you need
                    C               Am
  You wanted me but couldn’t reach me
               E               F    C
  I’m sorry it should’ve been me
 
 
[Interlude]
Bb    Eb    D
 
 
[Verse 2]
        F
I’d be going ‘bout my day, until a hand
            D
Would come and lift me out
      F
And drop me in the middle of a labyrinth
            D
Where I’d be stuck a while
       Am
When I saw the girl looked just like me, I thought
F
Must be lonely loving someone
G                                  D
Trying to find their way out of a maze
 
Oh I know
 
 
[Interlude]
Am  E  F  C  x2
 
 
[Chorus]
Am                E              F
  I haven’t given you what you need
                    C
  You wanted me but couldn’t reach me
Am                 E
  So you went into your memory-relived
  F                  C
  All the ways you still want me
Am                E              F
  I haven’t given you what you need
                    C               Am
  You wanted me but couldn’t reach me
               E               F    C
  I’m sorry it should’ve been me
Am             E               F    C
  I’m sorry it should’ve been me
 
 
[Outro]
C    F    Bb    Eb    D

this is perfect!!! because I have weak fingers I use this instead of F (I'm sure there's a name for this chord but I can't remember it lol) E|------1--------------| B|------1--------------| G|------2--------------| D|------3--------------| A|---------------------| E|---------------------|
