View chords used in this chart
Chords Used: Fingerpick the C based chords and Strum everything else
------------
C C/A C/B F Am
 
-Strumming pattern for me is:
 
1 COUNT = 3 short down strokes, emphasising on each 1st strum.
 
Should be easy enough to get the strumming rhythm if you listen
 
Intro/general guitar part: Just simply changing bass note of C chord - to A then to B and back to C
