INTRO: The intro is a riff played many times throughout the song. I am referring to it the “intro” because it is a specific, unchanging chord progression and is of course in the beginning of the song. Strumming in the intro is a simple down/up/down/up/down/up/down pattern with the chords on each up and down stroke. Progression is: Em(var.)|Emadd9|Em|Em7|Em|Em|C|. Listen to song for the timing. -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
