Verses: I always pluck the 6th string and then strum Down,
then Up for the chords G to the second F#.
I then use the strumming pattern Down, Down, Up, Up, Down, Up (x2)
for the C chord. Repeat this pattern until you reach the bridge.
Bridge: Use the Down, Down, Up, Up, Down, Up pattern,
until you get to the second D chord, where you should
continually strum down until you reach the chorus.
Make sure to go straight into the chorus from the bridge.
Chorus: Again, pluck the 6th string and then strum
Down, then Up for the chords G to C, and repeat,
until you get to the Dm7 chord, where you should
strum Down and Up repeatedly until you reach the G chord,
where you revert back to the verse's strumming patterns.
This is the first time I have posted chords for a song,
and I apologize for any mistakes. Please rate it if you
think these chords are good.
