Intro: Bm D A D Oh, it's a mystery to me D G A We have a greed with which we have agreed G A Bm And you think you have to want more than you need G A Bm Until you have it all you won't be free G D Society, you're a crazy breed A Bm Hope you're not lonely without me... D A D When you want more than you have you think you need... D G A And when you think more than you want your thoughts begin to bleed G A Bm I think I need to find a bigger place G A Bm Because when you have more than you think you need more space G D Society, you're a crazy breed A Bm Hope you're not lonely without me... G D Society, crazy indeed A Bm Hope you're not lonely without me... Solo: D - A - D / D - G - A / G - A - Bm ( x2 ) / G - D - A - Bm D A D There's those thinking, more-or-less, less is more D G A But if less is more, how you keeping score? G A Bm Means for every point you make, your level drops G A Bm Kinda like you're starting from the top, you can't do that... G D Society, you're a crazy breed A Bm Hope you're not lonely without me... G D Society, crazy indeed A Bm Hope you're not lonely without me... G D Society, have mercy on me A Bm Hope you're not angry if I disagree... G D Society, crazy indeed A Bm Hope you're not lonely...without me...

The strumming pattern that fits is the everywhere 4/4: d – d u – u d –. The groove sits around 90 bpm, a medium pace. You are playing it in B minor. The chords put it squarely at the skilled level. Warm folk strum, let the chords ring under the melody.

what’s the strumming pattern?
Definitely sweet at -2. Lookup his live performance from the Water on the Road DVD (Its on YT as well). He plays with a second guitarist. Tuned to this transposition. Awesome for those that have to hurt their vocal chords to play in the original key.
THE strumming pattern I used is d – D – u -d- u D-u
