-This is the idea of the intro. He strums more times than this, but essentially
-he gradually builds a C chord based from the C on the 5th string.

-The length and number of the strums varies a bit throughout the song.
-I play the chords with the following fingerings:
- Csus2/G  &  C/G:            Muted Strumming:
-e: open             barre at 2ND fret with 1ST finger
-B: 4TH finger       barre at 2ND fret with 1ST finger
-G: open             barre at 2ND fret with 1ST finger
-D: 1ST finger       barre at 2ND fret with 1ST finger
-A: 3RD finger       barre at 2ND fret with 1ST finger
-E: 2ND finger       barre at 2ND fret with 1ST finger
-In any blank spaces above the lyrics, he uses muted strumming.
-The general pattern is:
-Muted Strumming:
-e|---X-X-X--X--X-X-|
-B|---X-X-X--X--X-X-|
-G|---X-X-X--X--X-X-|
-D|---X-X-X--X--X-X-|
-A|---X-X-X--X--X-X-|
-E|---X-X-X--X--X-X-|
-This pattern also changes a bit throughout the song.
-Outro:
-e|----X--X--X-X--X-X-X--X--X-X--X-X-X--X-|
-B|----X--X--X-X--X-X-X--X--X-X--X-X-X--X-|
