What is the strumming to this song?

[CubFlanagan]

@gaspbreanna Here's the primary pattern, but he does a few little variations here and there. But this will get you through the song: "d"=downstroke, "u"=upstroke, "_"=miss the strings

D_du_uD_du_uDudu

I capitalized the downstrokes he emphasizes on the strum. He did alot of hammering onto those emphasized strokes. If you're saying this pattern out loud, it sounds like "DOWN, downup, upDOWN, downup, upDOWNupdownup"

I hope that helps. Sorry if it's unclear.

What is the strumming to this song? 

[kiddy800]

hey paul!

[sandmag1111]

I love this song!

[aznlui]

Does anyone know the strumming pattern for the verses and the chorus?

I'm a beginner, so it's difficult for me to distinguish between the up and down strums.

[Jean1juan]

what kind of guitar is that. is it eaier to strum than an acoustic

[phunkdified12]

@Jean1juan easier to strum? im not sure what you mean..  that guitar (if im correct) is a McPhearson, and it plays beautifully. very expensive though.. hope this helped

[leusek]

[Tolkienfan001]

Can someone please explain what Celtic style strumming is. Also what strumming pattern should I be using for this song? Down Up Down Up Down Up Down Up seems wrong?
