Strumming

Edit

Is this strumming pattern correct?

[Intro] - This is repeated throughout the song. Play x9 for the intro.

C         Am                 Em          F
I saw the world come down in Portland
C        Am               Em       F
I saw my head roll on for miles and miles
C    Am           Em           F
If I forgot wasn’t important
  C         Am           Em      F
I guess it wasn’t really worth my while
 
[Verse 1]
C         Am              Em       F
I see the way the shadows cross my eyes
C          Am       Em                   F
I like the way they look at me at night
C         Am        Em            F
I sip the potion of forgetfulness
C            Am             Em      F
I hoped that maybe it would ease my mind
 
[Pre-Chorus]
C  Am       Em       F
My thoughts come and go
C          Am        Em     F
Intrusive, innovative I don’t know
C   Em      Am     F
I’d like to see my smile
C             Em               Am       C
I grin through yellow teeth and spit up bile
 
[Chorus]
C         Am                 Em          F
I saw the world come down in Portland
C        Am               Em       F
I saw my head roll on for miles and miles
C    Am           Em           F
If I forgot wasn’t important
  C         Am           Em      F
I guess it wasn’t really worth my while
C           Am Em F
In Portland
C           Am Em F
In Portland
 
[Outro]
C         Am                 Em          F
I saw the world come down in Portland
C        Am               Em       F
I saw my head roll on for miles and miles
C    Am           Em           F
If I forgot wasn’t important
  C         Am           Em      F
I guess it wasn’t really worth my while
