The strumming pattern is quite folk basic, in the song, the guitarist keeps randomly 
hammering the G chord on the E and A string.


Verse: (Keep randomly hammering those bass notes)

        D
Have I not?


     C                                G
And all these new friends stare and remind me
    C              G
Of what I haven't got

THen at some point in the song, this goes in:
     G

e--x--x--3---|
B--x--x--3---|
G--x--x--4---|
D--x--x--5---|
A--x--x--5---|
E--x--x--3---|

And that's pretty much the whole pattern for the rhytmic guitar of the song.



Here are the chords for the whole song:

  G
September came real fast
  G
Faster than the last
  G        C
Are you alone?
  C        G
Cause I'm alone

You got the key to our safe
Keep it secret for our sake
Or I'm gone
While I'm gone

     C                      G
You could hide it in your pillow
 C                   G
Or in an old doll's head
  C                  G
Underneath a tree somewhere
            A         D
Or just swallow it instead

  D                        C  G
Cause Lord you know I've tried
        D
Have I not?
                C                          G
And all these new friends stare and remind me
     C             G
Of what I haven't got

G C G C


Fifty thousand pounds
Stashed under the ground
I'll take you out
Now I can take you out

Secrets in the walls
Left there from before
They moved out
Why don't you come round?

And see my new reflection
In my brand new trophy room

We'll buy a ticket out of here
Maybe Rio de Janerio

Cause Lord you know I've tried
Have I not?
And all these new friends stare and remind me
Of what I haven't got

A brand new life in the sun
We'll go from beach to beach
It's just begun
It's just begun

What I thought was the start became the end
It turns out you just want to be my friend
You turn to me and say
"This was a nice holiday" (Nooooo)

And you can see my new reflection
As it crumbles to the floor
Another drink, oh, another chat
I've got friends in every port

 D                         C G
Cause Lord you know I've tried
        D
Have I not?
                  C                         G
And all these new friends stare and remind me
 C                C/B
Oh, but they do inspire me
      G                    C        G
Oh, will anybody take me home tonight?
