The intro and chorus follow one pattern of strumming & hi/lo fingering
for each of the chords, the pattern is :
-----o---o------------------o-o------
---o-------o-x-x--o---o-o-o-----o-o-- pattern 1a, then
^ ^ ^ ^
---o-o---o------------------o-o------
-----------o-x-x--o---o-o-o-----o-o-- pattern 1b
^ ^ ^ ^
Where
-o- on the bottom line is a strum of the (lo) version of each chord
-o- on the top line is a strum of the (hi) version of each chord
-x- is strum, but mute the strings at the neck
^ is a beat
The verse follows a second pattern :
---o--------------------------o--x-
-----------o----o--o---o---o------- pattern 2
^ ^ ^ ^
and the bridge, a third:
-----o-------o----------------o)---
-------------------o------(o------- pattern 3
^ ^ ^ ^
So, if you combine the hi and lo versions of each chord to follow those
patterns and then put the patterns together like this, the song goes :
^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^
[intro] Dm (pattern 1a) Dm (pattern 1b)
F (pattern 1a) F (pattern 1b)
Dm (pattern 1a) Dm (pattern 1b)
F (pattern 1a) C (let ring)
^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^
[verse] F(pattern 2) F(pattern 2) C(pattern 2) C(pattern 2)
F(pattern 2) F(pattern 2) C(pattern 2) C(pattern 2)
F(pattern 2) F(pattern 2) C(pattern 2) C(pattern 2)

End of chorus (*)
-------------
I'm not sure if I made the end of each chorus clear :
[chorus1] 1. play chorus over again, sing "want, infactuate, haunt.."
[chorus1] 2. play/sing "<<like the way I do, can I sur->>" bit, above
[chorus2] 1. play chorus over again, sing "want, infactuate, haunt.."
[chorus2] 2. sing 'ah, nobody.." -> bridge
[chorus3] 1. play chorus over again, sing "want, infactuate, haunt.."
[chorus3] 2. play [
. is "no chord"
Every time I listen to this song, I hear more (and different) versions of
patterns 1,2,3- so this isn't complete, but I'm pretty sure the chords
are right, so mess around with the patterns. Any improvements welcome.
