Does anyone know the strumming pattern for Steal My Kisses by Ben Harper? I have listened to the song over and over and can't seem to get the rhythm down. Any Help would be appreciated.

i play it as follows (all barre chords):

first measure G chord root 6:

1e+a2e+a3e+a4e+a

D    UD    U  U  UD

second measure C chord root 5

1e+a2e+a3e+a4e+a

D    UD    U  U  UD

3 measure D chord root 5:

1e+a2e+a3e+a4e+a

D    UD    UD    UD D

4th measure G chord root 6:

1e+a2e+a3e+a4e+a

D    UD    U  U  UD

repeat this for most of the song.

the third measure is the only tricky part.  On the 1 you will actually hit the c chord and slide your barre chord up to the fifth fret for a D chord and continue with the D chord for the rest of the measure until the + of beat 4 which is a C chord followed by a G chord on the downstroke of beat 1 in the 4th measure.  hope this helps.  any questions please ask.

thanks
brian
