Strumming

Edit

Is this strumming pattern correct?

[Intro]
C   Em   Am   F   x2
 
[Verse 1]
       C
I fell down, down, down
          Em
Into this dark and lonely hole
          Am                       F
There was no one there to care about me anymore
      C               Em                           Am
And I needed a way to climb and grab a hold of the edge
                       F
You were sitting there holding a rope
 
[Chorus]
             C
And we'll go up, up, up
         Em
But I'll fly a little higher
         Am                           F
We'll go up in the clouds because the view is a little nicer
   C       Em
Up here my dear
            Am                    F
It won't be long now, it won't be long now
 
[Verse 2]
           C
When I get back on land
          Em
Well I'll never get my chance
   Am                      F
Be ready to live and it'll be ripped right out of my hands
C                   Em
Maybe someday we'll take a little ride
         Am                  F
We'll go up, up, up and everything will be just fine
 
[Chorus]
             C
And we'll go up, up, up
         Em
But I'll fly a little higher
         Am                           F
We'll go up in the clouds because the view is a little nicer
   C       Em
Up here my dear
            Am                    F
It won't be long now, it won't be long now
 
[Bridge]
   Em   Am                        F
If only... I had a little bit more time
   Em   Am                         F
If only... I had a little bit more time with you
 
[Verse 3]
            C
We could go up, up, up
    Em
And take that little ride
      Am
We'll sit there holding hands
         F
And everything would be just right
    C                  Em
And maybe someday I'll see you again
      Am                               F
We'll float up in the clouds and we'll never see the end
 
[Chorus]
             C
And we'll go up, up, up
         Em
But I'll fly a little higher
         Am                           F
We'll go up in the clouds because the view is a little nicer
   C       Em
Up here my dear
            Am                    F
It won't be long now, it won't be long now
 
[Outro]
C   Em    Am    F     C

great tab ... even though u suggested not playing through-out the bridge but i believe single-strumming each chord would make it nicer.. bridge chords: Em Am F if only ... i had a little bit more time Em Am F G (gradually increasing strum) if only ... i had a little bit more time with you

strumming that works best for me: dd d uu ududu

for me its: D D U D U and just listen to the song so u get the rythm :)
