Portugal. The Man -- Created
The chords in this song aren't strummed, they're arpeggiated like this:
---------1--------|
-----1-----1---1--|
---2---2-----2----|
-3----------------|
------------------|
------------------|
except for the F and A in the F-A-Dm part which is either played like:
------------------1-| your choice.
-----1----------1---|
---2---2-or---2-----|
-3----------3-------|
--------------------|
--------------------|
All the chords are barre chord shapes (except the first two Dm in each verse,
 which are open), so the picking pattern stays consistent throughout the song.
FI don't know how we were Dmcreated
but I know that FI know we all Dmdie, know we all die

I'll pick up all mine and build one too
