Chords

The two strumming patterns put together are what is played during the verses. These patterns are used at various times throughout the song. For when to play each, listen to the Acoustic Version in 1997 To better emulate the version in this link the second verse and bridge can be omitted and the chorus can be shortened by 4/8 bars.
