(This song is a mix of strumming and single notes picking)
Capo on the fifth fret - Standard Tuning.

[Verse (0:19 - 0:49)]
Doing the verses, the strumming is a bit more "loose" and does not highlight the light
notes as much in the intro, but still highlights the root notes frequently.
(Occasionally you want to hit the high E string (Listen to the song)).

[Chorus (0:50 - 1:20)]
Strum even harder during chorus, but don't forget to highlight the high E string.
(Each chord is about 4 beats)
