This is a great song very simple straight forward the strum pattern changes in the songs 
and i will tell you when

Chords (in order of appearence)
A,A/G#,F#m,F(bar),G,D,C,C/B,Am,E7,Bm,Em (two things i prefer Baring the G and the second 
A that will come up after the G to bring it up and octive and this is not the 
progression there will be other chord reappearing in there and it changes in the song)

the first strum pattern is (D D U) when it get to F#m (D D) ( listen to song)
