these are the only chords in the song. There are about three strumming patterns, 

they kinda go like this:

First:
Play the chords staccato (strum but dont let it ring out, basically strum then 

palm mute right afterwards).(bum)

Second:
Play chords like the first strumming pattern, but strum a palm muted chord to 

make a "chuck" sound (bum-chuck)

Third: (Hey really gets into this one)
Play like the second strumming pattern but strum down AND up whiel palm muted 

after the staccato chord (bum-chuck chuck)


Freestyle:
Beat Boxing style!

Boom-chuck-Boom-Boom-Chuck x until half way

By listening to the song and knowing the chords and the basic strumming patterns 

it shouldnt be hard.
