Chords

Here's another song to start a sing-a-long at parties when the crowd begins die down. This is also another great song for beginners since about 90% of the song derives from your simple D chord; so the only thing to worry about is the strumming pattern, which I will show you. If you have any problems with the timing, just listen to the song. When you have made your judgement please rate. The beat is in 4/4 and it's pretty fast and it's in standard tuning. Strumming pattern: D=down U=up
D D U   U D
1 2 &(3)& 4
