Strumming Pattern Explained
D D UUD D DU
- Begin with two steady downstrokes to establish the groove.
- Follow with an up-up-down movement, keeping the two upstrokes light and relaxed.
- Finish the pattern with a down-down-up sequence without breaking the rhythm.
- Keep your wrist loose so the strumming flows naturally from one chord to the next.
- Practice the pattern slowly at first, then gradually increase your speed while maintaining even timing.
Teaching Notes (PRO Tips)
- Practice switching smoothly between D, G, and A before adding the Bm chord.
- If the Bm barre chord feels difficult, practice it separately until it rings cleanly.
- Keep the verses soft and relaxed, then add a little more intensity during the chorus.
- Avoid hitting the strings too hard—the song sounds best with a light, flowing strumming feel.
- Play along with the original recording to develop the song's gentle dynamics and timing.
