Im not sure exactly how to write finger picking but this is what I do for the intro.
i THINK this is the fingerpicking pattern for the introduction? I am not 100% certain so feel free to reply with suggestions or corrections…
xA|——-3——-|
xE|—-0—–1p0–|
xC|—————-|
xG|—————-| repeat?
Love that this song is on here!
I think the opening goes like this:
E|-0-0-
A|-3-
E|-1p0-0-0-
G|-0-
E|-1p0
x2
Then when the chords start it alternates between something like this:
E|-0-
C|-0-0-
A|-3-
x2
And something like this
E|-0
C|-0-0
G|-0-
x2

its a little confusing but putting this together with the tabs here makes sense
Hey does anyone recommend a strumming pattern?
the dm->am in the chorus (with 2 down strums on the dm at least for me) also works well with a very quick dm->f->am it’s only a little bit harder and it sounds good
xA|—-3——|
xE|–0—1—-|
xC|———0-|
xG|–0—2—-|
Im not exactly sure how to type finger plucking but this is what I do for the intro.
isnt this someone new tho?
In the fourth verse it’s not “I might be OPEN about this” but rather “I might be HOPING about this”. Jsyk.
