Every Town Will Celebrate by Mischief Brew
Every Town Will Celebrate
Down, up down, up up up down
Down, up down, up up up down
The commas represent a pause where you deaden the strings from the previous strum.
For example, the intro would be:
DOWN (deaden strings) UP DOWN (deaden strings) UP UP UP DOWN
C C C F F Am Am
DOWN (deaden strings) UP DOWN (deaden strings) UP UP UP DOWN
G G G F F C C
Practice this pattern over and over and the song should come pretty naturally. Not the hardest song to learn,
but definitely not easy by any means.
I personally find that practicing the strumming pattern without using any chords (with the strings deadened)
helps the pattern come more quickly.
You only use this pattern for the intro and verses. For the pre choruses and chorus you can use
standard down down up up down up strumming (or any 4/4 pattern you want).
On the bridge there is some syncopated strumming during the bridge, just listen to the song and copy. This may
be another strumming pattern you need to spend some time practicing before you can execute it cleanly, but
don't give up and you will get it eventually!
