There is a distinct strumming pattern here, so listen carefully.
Some of the notes almost sound muted, bet they still are audiable,
so don't let go of the strings at any point. You can hear the strum
pattern individually at 3:17 for one bar- so treat yourself.
When Sam sings "one..two..three", it goes into some kind of bridge
or alternate verse.
