Notes: Strumming is just a solid 
downstroke pattern. Notes in 
parentheses may be played
For the most part, though, Brett 
leaves them out
(as I do in the video).
With Am, half the time Brett plays 
it as a standard barre chord and the
 other half he
it as I do.
I prefer using the thumb for the 
bass notes (reminiscent of John 
Mayer's style). During
F chord in the chorus Brett adds a 
little hammer-on with the pinky on 
the 4th string,
fret.

numerous videos, most specifically
