I think i've got the strum pattern down but i'd like some one to give me one to use and to tab out all the little embellishments for me, thank you! The song is here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4qfGiRLadio

Surely you can still get this one in the shops? It's not like it's ancient, or anything.

In shops? I have the chords and stuff, just wanted a little help seeing how he was strumming and what he's doing when he's putting different fingers down on chords etc?

let's see. he uses a hammer-on on the a minor chord with his pinkie. that would be d. he uses his middle finger to hammer-on on the f. that would be a. he uses one on the c with his middle finger again, which would be e. and he hammers on the c with his index on the g chord.
as for the strumming pattern, it's mostly straight downstrokes on the beat with the occasional upstroke between beats. 4/4 time i believe. all very standard stuff, but a pain to write it all out. you're not going to find a lot of people who are going to tab out songs for you every time you ask.
