All throughout the tab you'll see "(E)" which indicates the E chord isn't
actually being played there in the actual song, but it feels like it is,
thus you can play it there if you will :)
Also, about the strumming pattern, I recommend playing only the lower note of the chord in beat 1 and 3
as done in the song.
