Watching The Wheels Chords

   
This is how the song appears on the box set and the Acoustic album. To get a jis
 of the strumming pattern listen to the song a few times.

It's important to note that after the second verse he adds more chords to both
verse and chorus. 

All in all this is a very simple song and quite fun to play.
