Anyway, for strumming, just follow the pattern in 
the song, it's not terribly hard but its one to get used to.
 The last line is somewhat correct but the song does definitely 
end on an Am. Everything played on the elec guitar 
is pretty much the same as the acoustic only the 
acoustic is background noise in this song. If you 
find any problems/have questions/have help to make 
Enjoy!
