Im having a hard time matching up the chords you play for the chorus to the words in the song. Are you playing the "chorus" from the first "are you gonna kiss me or not" to the second "are you gonna kiss me or not"?

[MrGitar11]

@gentlegiant122 Yeah, you start playing the first C Chord in the chorus at the end of the first "are you gonna kiss me or not", right around the word "not". You play the pattern C G D G twice until you get to "but you're about..." Then, you play a C chord at the word "but" for the whole strum pattern, and then a D chord after the C for the full pattern as well. I hope that helps. Try to match it up on the original also, that should make it a little easier.

[gentlegiant122]

your strumming pattern at 0:25 for the intro has me confused. when you play it you start and end on a G but the pattern would make it seem like you end on a Dsus4

[MrGitar11]

@gentlegiant122 . Yeah, sorry about that. You're right, it should end on a Dsus4. That last G that I play is actually the beginning of the verse. Sometimes I forget that I'm only playing part of the song and not the whole thing, and I forget to stop early enough. I'll try harder to remember not to do that.

Hey bud thanks im beginning to catch on and i like the chord diagram too. But what tempo exactly in the intro do you play the dsus4 chord at? im new to this and i cant do it:( please help

[MrGitar11]

@k3182372323 The best thing to do is to listen to the original and try and match the strums, but give this a try. If your counting the beats as 1 and 2 and 3...etc. Strum: G- 1-Down And-rest 2-Down And-Down/Up Dsus4- 3-Down/Up And-Down 4-rest And-Up/Down/Up
