I play\r\nit to give the song a slightly higher pitch right leading into the chorus. When\r\nyou play it, make sure you hit the first string U/U/D/U and then change back to a\r\nD after that U/U/D/U strumming sequence. Give it a try, I think it sounds better\r\nthat way. Also, on the 4th line of second and third verses, Marc mutes the C\r\nchord right after switching to it and finishes the line \"a cappella.\" Then start\r\nup with G again normally on the next line.
