I was wondering if someone could help me with this. I have the chords (or at least what the book is telling me) but I am clueless when it comes to strumming...does anyone have a strum pattern they would be willing to share? If anyones interested I'll type out the lyrics with the chords I have...thanks
Oh I'll type it out anyway!
Let Your Love Flow
C F
There's a reason for the summer sky
C F
There's a reason why I'm feeling so high
G7 C
Must be the season...when that love light shines all around us
F C F
So let that feeling grab you deep inside
C F
And send you reeling where your love can't hide
G7
And then go stealing through the summer nights
C
With your lover
C7 F
Just let your love flow like a mountain stream
C
(And) let your love grow with the smallest of dreams
G7
And let your love show And you'll know what I mean
C
It's the season
C7 F
Let your love fly like a bird on the wing
C
(And) let your love blind you to all living things
G7
And let your love shine and you'll know what I mean
C
That's the reason
C F
There's a reason for the warm sweet nights
C F
And there's a reason for the candle lights
G7
Must be the season when those love rites shine
C
All around us
F C F
So let the wonder take you into space
C F
And lay you under its loving embrace
G7
Just feel the thunder as it warms your face
C
You can't hold back
C7 F
Just let your love flow like a mountain stream
C
(And) let your love grow with the smallest of dreams
G7
And let your love show And you'll know what I mean
C
It's the season
C7 F
Let your love fly like a bird on the wing
C
(And) let your love blind you to all living things
G7
And let your love shine and you'll know what I mean
C
That's the reason
Thats what I have

I don't know the pattern for sure. But i can "hear" it in my head even sitting here, so here goes......
try
D D D (slight pause) UDU DD for each chord.
its quite quick but this pattern should keep it rolling along
To get the slight pause, go against "regular" strumming advice that tells you to keep your arm moving. After the third downstrum, just leave your strumming hand down for an instant, before playing the quick UDU bit
Suggest you try this on one chord until you are happy that you can repeat it, before trying it on all the chords.
good luck
Matt
Welcome here Winston and with a great song too!
I see your chord placings have been affected by our phantom text editer :wink: :wink:
Don't worry we've all been affected by this. On your next submission try putting the chords in brackets where you want them between the words in the lyrics.
Thanks Matt for helping Winston out, I veiwed this earlier and was trying to work out the pattern in my head. I'll have to try this one out.
Cheers,
Chris

When this was out, about '74 or so, I saw a couple of guys playing this in the pub....they used a lot of sus4th's and extended chords, I actually learned what a sus4 was from this song....think they played it in a different key though, looked like they were playing G/D/Dsus4....
I'll see what i can find out....
:D :D :D

NOTE: Alternate to two Chorus' and out would be on the second time to do a bar chord walkup D D# E F, and then go into a percussive strumming and muting for the first half of the chorus, and then walkup again into second half of chorus. Finish by repeating the break two times.
E doesn't = MC2, E = Fb
