Hi! I love this song by them and this is how i play it i hope you find it helpful.
My strumming patern is PICK DOWN DOWN UP DOWN UP. But you can play it any way you
want i know they dont do it that way but they use alot more instruments in the
band than just guitar so i think it sounds fuller.
Capo on third fret!
