Because it was too hard to tab the rhythm/strumming exactly, you will have
to listen to the song to figure out the rhythm and timing of the intro/verse/chorus
chords. I think the way I play it in my YouTube video
( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6d2oPVVEvr0 )
is pretty close to what is actually played, and I just like to play it that way. But you can
play it however you like. Its really not too hard to figure out anyways.
When playing the rhythm, keep in mind that between the louder strums
there are a lot of softer notes that aren't exactly palm mutes, but
Robert Smith just brushes the pick over the strings strumming up and
down while keeping his fingers lightly pressed on the frets.
