Note: The chord labeled "Asus2" is not actually Asus2; I just couldn't find a name for it.

Now, the sections that go [Em Cmaj Em Cmaj] can be strummed, but Elliott plays
something like this:

|-----------------------------------|
|-------0--------------1------------|
|-------0-------------------0-------|
|-------2----------2------------2---|
|-------2---0h2---------------------|
|---0---0---------------------------|

That’s not exact, but it’s pretty easy to figure out the strumming if you listen
to the song.

If you want to play the solo while you strum the chords, here is what I do.
Again, it’s not exact, but you can figure out how to play it on your own pretty
easily.
