Portugal. The Man -- Created
The chords in this song aren't strummed, they're arpeggiated like this:
---------1--------|
-----1-----1---1--|
---2---2-----2----|
-3----------------|
------------------|
------------------|
except for the F and A in the F-A-Dm part which is either played like:
------------------1-| your choice.
-----1----------1---|
---2---2-or---2-----|
-3----------3-------|
--------------------|
--------------------|
All the chords are barre chord shapes (except the first two Dm in each verse,
which are open), so the picking pattern stays consistent throughout the song.
