The basic strumming goes: Up Down U D U D U D... The first strumming starts with the Em chord. Here's a ROUGH idea of which strings to strum, please improvize! Em e|------0-0-------0-0------------| B|------0-0-------0-0------------| G|----0-0-0-----0-0-0---0-0-0-0--| D|----2-2-2-----2-2-2---2-2-2-2--| (x4) A|----2-2-2-----2-2-2---2-2-2-2--| E|--0-0-0-0---0-0-0-0---0-0-0-0--| v ^ v ^ v ^ v ^ v ^ v ^ v = Down stroke ^ = Up stroke NOTE - You must follow the SAME strumming pattern that I've demonstrated here using the Em chord, throughout the song. The basic idea is, strumming the bass note first, bass strings next and finally all the strings separately each time as I've shown. Listen closely to the song to understand. ---------x---------x---------x---------x---------x---------x---------x Em D Pani da rang vekh ke Em D Pani da rang vekh ke Em D Pani da rang vekh ke C D Em Ankhiyan jo anju rul de -- C D Em Ankhiyan jo anju rul de C D Em Em -- Em D Mahiya naa aaya mera, mahiya naa aaya Em D Mahiya naa aaya mera, mahiya naa aaya C D Ranjhna na aaya mera, mahiya naa aaya C D Mahiya naa aaya mera, ranjhna na aaya Em D Ankhaan daa, noor vekh ke Em D Ankhaan daa, noor vekh ke C D Em Ankhiyan jo anju rul de -- C D Em Ankhiyan jo anju rul de C D Em Ankhiyan jo anju rul de -- No chord (play bass E string 0 then, slide down to 12, if you want to.)
