these are the only chords in the song. There are about three strumming patterns,

they kinda go like this:

First:
Play the chords staccato (strum but dont let it ring out, basically strum then

palm mute right afterwards).(bum)

Second:
Play chords like the first strumming pattern, but strum a palm muted chord to

make a "chuck" sound (bum-chuck)

Third: (Hey really gets into this one)
Play like the second strumming pattern but strum down AND up whiel palm muted

after the staccato chord (bum-chuck chuck)


Freestyle:
Beat Boxing style!

Boom-chuck-Boom-Boom-Chuckx about 4 times
wickywickywickywicky
Boom-chuck-Boom-Boom-Chuck x until half way
wippywippywip
Boom-chuck-Boom-Boom-Chuck x until end
woowoowooowoowoowooo

By listening to the song and knowing the chords and the basic strumming patterns

it shouldnt be hard.
