Here's my best shot at the strum pattern, too:
E Esus2 E Esus2
D--D-U--U-|D--D--D--|D--D-U--U-|D--D--D
Also, putting the emphasis of your strums on the bass (deeper) notes on each
Esus2 chord makes it sound nice. Specifically, on the three down-strums
while playing Esus2, hit the low E and A strings more than the other strings.
[Verse 1]
E Esus2 E Esus2 E Esus2
Life is sweet in the belly of the beast
E
In the belly of the beast
Esus2 E Esus2 E Esus2 E Esus2
And with her song in your heart, it can never bring you down
E Esus2
It can never bring you do-own
E Esus2
[Verse 2]
E Esus2 E Esus2 E Esus2
Lost in a maze of a thousand rainy days
E
Of a thousand rainy days
Esus2 E Esus2 E Esus2 E Esus2
But when I heard her voice, oh it led me to the end
E Esus2
Yes it led me to the end
[Chorus]
C#m G#m
'Cause when she sings I hear a symphony
A E
And I'm swallowed in sound as it echoes through me
C#m G#m
I'm renewed, oh, how I feel alive!
A A
Through autumn's advancing, we'll stay young, go dancing
(riff)
[Bridge]
B F#m B C#m A
As the music plays, feel our bodies swa-a-ay
B F#m A
When we move as one, we stay young... ohh
[Verse 3]
E Esus2 E Esus2 E Esus2
Life is sweet in the belly of the beast
E
In the belly of the beast
Esus2 E Esus2 E Esus2 E Esus2
And with her song in your heart, it can never bring you down, (it can never bring you down)
E
It can never bring you down
[Final Chorus]
C#m G#m
'Cause when she sings I hear a symphony
A E
And I'm swallowed in sound as it echoes through me
C#m G#m
I'm renewed, oh, how I feel alive!
A A
Through winter's advancing, we'll stay young, go dancing
Stay young, go dancing
Stay young, go dancing (end on E chord)
