STRUMMING PATTERNS USED:
The strumming is a very important part to this song.. The following
is how it's done on the CD. If you're going to improvise something more
interesting on top of it, then stick to this pattern:
 
INTRO:
|. 1 - 2 - 3 - 1 - 2 - 3 - .|
|. /   / \ / \ /   / \ / \ .|
 
\ = upstroke   : eadgbe
                 <----- THIS WAY
 
/ = downstroke : eadgbe
                 -----> THIS WAY
 
Occasionally, a heavy, 'deliberate' upstroke is used on the first beat
of a new bar in the intro.
 
The verse chords change as follows:
 
   E       C   G           Gmaj7       E           E
|. 1 - 2 - 3 - 1 - 2 - 3 - 1 - 2 - 3 - 1 - 2 - 3 - 1 - 2 - 3 - .|
|. /   / \ / \ /   / \ / \ /   / \ / \ /   / \ / \ /   / \ / \ .|
 
The chorus chords change as follows:
 
   D           A           C           E
|. 1 - 2 - 3 - 1 - 2 - 3 - 1 - 2 - 3 - 1 - 2 - 3 - .|
|. /   / \ / \ /   / \ / \ /   / \ / \ /   / \ / \ .|
 
   C           E           B           Am          Am            [back to E again..]
|. 1 - 2 - 3 - 1 - 2 - 3 - 1 - 2 - 3 - 1 - 2 - 3 - 1 - 2 - 3 - .|
|. /   / \ / \ /   / \ / \ / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / .|
