Hi Everyone,

The song is More than Words. It is a nice song that i am trying to learn, as this is a strumming song, it is much easier for me. But i have spent an entire night trying to figure out the sturmming patterns until i got a headache out from this. I have no problems with the chords....just the strumming patterns. Mind if anyone can explain in detail on the up/down and tap pattern?

Can anyone help?

Rgs,
Kenny

pretty simple strumming. I hear a string damp or mute on one beat. then some strumming.

do you know how to string damp?

Hi medarrah,

Its a nice song for us newbies to learn ya? its easy yet preserves the fingerpick melody.

Are you going to learn the song?

Any experts here would like to enlighten me on the up/down tap strumming pattern please?

I am greatly appreciated.

Cheers
