This is not the way Hozier plays it but it sounds good and is easier to play To get the strumming pattern right check out Jason Fahey's Cover of the song here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L4_fQ5Gq3HI This is where I got the chords for this song, Thanks Jason! The (C) in the chorus is an optional chord and can be left out if wanted. Capo on 2nd Fret Intro: G, C (x4) [Verse 1] (G, C)
