The strumming pattern that fits is the everywhere 4/4: d – d u – u d –. The groove sits around 100 bpm, a medium pace. The chords stay at the rookie level, nothing tricky in there. Let the offbeats float loosely for that hazy dreamy feel.

if you play the last instrumental a few times, then add a Bb chord at the end, it sounds really nice. 🙂
