Strumming Pattern Explained
ddddDddd
Start with four steady downstrokes to establish a consistent rhythm.
The 5th strum (Down) should be slightly accented to create the emotional groove of the song.
After the accent, continue with three relaxed downstrokes, keeping your strumming hand loose and controlled.
Try to maintain a soft and even rhythm, especially during the verses where the song feels more intimate.
Practice the pattern slowly at first, then gradually increase the speed while keeping the accent on the 5th strum clear.
Teaching Notes (PRO Tips)
Focus on smooth transitions between Em, D, and Cadd9, as these chords appear throughout most of the song.
Practice the Cadd9 chord (x32033) slowly if it feels unfamiliar, since it’s the only slightly tricky chord in the progression.
Use lighter strumming during the verses and slightly stronger strums in the chorus to match the emotional lift of the song.
Keep your fretting hand relaxed so chord transitions stay clean and natural.
Once you're comfortable with the chords, try playing along with the original track by Arijit Singh to improve your timing and feel.
