Was fooling around with one of the previous versions and figured out the strum pattern and chords
that sound correct when playing along with the album version. The rhythm of the song is pretty
easy to get and should sort of fall in time with where I put the chords relative to the words but
they could be slightly off. Enjoy!

Capo 4

Capo 4 seems to fit best with the album but you can adjust to suit your voice (I personally prefer
Capo 2).

Chords:
Gmaj  (320033)
GsusGsus  (200233)
E minor 7Em7   (022033)
Cadd9Cadd9  (032033)
Csus2Csus2  (030033)

Symbols:
p/: Pull-Off
h/: Hammer-On

Strum Pattern:

Gmaj     to GsusGsus     to E minor 7Em7
B-B-D-DU-UD-D-DU-B-B-D-DU-UD-D-DU
E minor 7Em7      to Cadd9Cadd9        to Gmaj
B-B-D-DU-UD-D-DU-B-B-D-DU-/p-UDU-/h-UDU

Its another really weird strum pattern that you just have to work at a bit to get used to.
