The strumming pattern that fits is the busy upbeat 4/4: d – d u d u d u. Expect a brisk pace, around 130 bpm. This arrangement is in Gb minor. I rate the chords skilled, a fair middle ground. Palm-mute the down-ups in the verse then open big for the chorus.

if anyone wants the riff thing after “and thats for all of time” it goes something like this:
A|-11-7-11-13-15-13-11-7-6-|
E|——————————-|
C|——————————-|
G|——————————-|
I’m really bad at formatting but I think the riff goes like this:
A| -0—0-2-4-2-0——
E| —-2——————1-0
C| —————————-
G| —————————-
PS the actual song is in a different key than these chords, so in the original key (down one half step) its
A| —————————
E| —1——————0–
C| ————————-3
G| 1—1-3-5-3–1——
-2
+3 or -2 are a bit easier
if anyone was wondering about a strumming pattern, i use quick, single downstrums. i think DDU UDU would also work well 🙂
oh schlaaaa-aaaaat…… (ps this song’s great)
-2 with a capo on the second fret on a ✨guitar✨ sounds great and the og key on a ukulele sounds pretty awesome as well!
