Don't be bothered at all about getting the strumming patterns precise,
just use my verse as a rough guide. In the first bar, as long as you
get the hammer-ons then it should sound fine. I've put a measure in
that Jack once played live, you can develop on that if you want.

  I was watching with one eye on the other side

           D (xx0232@1)            
  I had fifteen people telling me to move
  
          G (320003@1) I got movin' on my mind

           G (320003@1)                C (x32010@1)    
  I found shelter in some thoughts turning wheels around

                D (xx0232@1)         
  I said thirty-nine times that 'I love you' 
 
             G (320003@1) To the beauty I had found      Well It's

  I've been thinking of a little place down by the lake

                  D (xx0232@1)       
  They've got a dirty old road leading up to the house

            G (320003@1)
  I wonder how long it will take
               
               G (320003@1)                        C (x32010@1)  'Till we're alone sittin' on the front porch of that home

      D (xx0232@1)                     
  Stomping our feet on the wooden boards

  It might sound silly for me to think childish thought like these

       D (xx0232@1)                                  G (320003@1)
