good on the whole but one mistake,(it doesnt matter at all) but its the 1st 2nd and 3rd stings not 4th 5th and 6th. I gave it five stars anyway.

Hi to all REM fans.
I love this song and play it for years now. Just to add a little variation to the picking I suggest to use the following strumming pattern in the choruses or wherever you feel the need for a little variation.
Please let me know through your vote what you think.
The song is in 3/4 therefor we'll count.
1 2 3 1 2 3 1 2 3 1 2 3

Please let me know through your vote what you think.
Here I made a tutorial that explains the rhythm:
