Below is the basic pattern for the verses. You hit the bass note (B,A,G) and then
brush
and strum the strings below that bass note however you feel like. You can pick up a nice pattern
from the song if you listen to it.
And sometimes Glen Hansard hits the bass note twice before switching. Again, just listen
the song.
