This is my first time uploading on here, so I apologize in advance if these are wrong, I would gladly accept any corrections! I am a 15 year old girl and I have a really big passion for guitar so I would accept any criticism :) I found a lot of the posts on here for this song weren't correct and after countless times listening to the song, and seeing other peoples versions of the way they perform this song, this is what I came up with. Please feel free to correct me. The strumming pattern is kind of difficult because it's so complex, but I'll try my best to explain it. For the first two verses it's a sixteenth note strum. 1st set of G Cadd9 - G Cadd9: D-DDU-UD-DUDU 2nd set of G Cadd9 - G Cadd9: D-DDU DC: D-DDU-UD-DUDU Chorus strumming pattern. G Cadd9 - G Cadd9: D-DDU-UD-DUDU GDC: D-DDU G: D-DDU-UD-DUDU C: Down The little extra verse thing that I indicated I didn't know what exactly was. I just used D-DU-U-DU For the 3rd and final verse. G (320003@1)// C (x32010@1)x4 DU D (xx0232@1) G Cadd9 - G Cadd9: D-DDU DC: D-DDU-UD-DUDU Sorry if that was bad, if you still don't understand I used the video at the following link to help me understand. - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=71O-QCpnB7s Verse 1: G (320003@1) Cadd9We (x32030@1)both lie silently still, in the dead of the night G (320003@1) Cadd9Although (x32030@1)we both lie close together, we feel miles apart inside G (320003@1) Cadd9Was (x32030@1)it something I said, or something I did, G (320003@1) Cadd9did (x32030@1)my words not come out right?
