The song is not very guitar-oriented.) Dots represent sixteenth notes, apostrophes eights. Chords in brackets represent a "lighter" stroke.
Verse
Beat: 1 . ' . 2 . ' . 3 . ' . 4 . ' . Down-or Upstroke: D (D) U (D) D (D) U (U) D (D)(U) Chord example: Dm = = = Am = = = = = =
For the chorus, I just strum the chords once or twice and play around with the notes however I feel like! I suggest you do the same. There's no clear rhythm during this part.
