Strumming Patterns

There are few points to remember.

While learning strumming, you have to be conscious of your hand movement to match the counts etc. here you will find your hand moving more like a mechanical robot. But the art of strumming begins with having your right hand low down and up in a smooth naturalmovement.
Strumming is an art based on a simple DOWN-UP movement of your hand. So your hand should always move down and up, and based on the pattern that you are playing you either choose to HIT or MISS the strings while going down or HIT or MISS it while coming up. This is very important as many people tend to overlook it.
First divide the basic counts into a pattern like this: 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 &
Move your hand down on ONE and UP on the AND (&) and keep this going on continuously.
Wherever in the examples there is an X mark, you DO NOT stop your hand movement, but you simply DON’T play on that X.

Hitting all the counts:
1–&–2–&–3–&–4–& | 1–&–2–&–3–&–4–& |
D–U–D–U–D–U–D–U | D–U–D–U–D–U–D–U |
Example 2:
Hitting on 1-2&3-4&
1–&–2–&–3–&–4–& | 1–&–2–&–3–&–4–& |
D–X–D–U–D–X–D–U | D–X–D–U–D–X–D–U |
Example 3:
Hitting on 1-2&-&4&
This pattern if played at a moderate speed can be used for Papa Kehte Hain type of songs:
1–&–2–&–3–&–4–& | 1–&–2–&–3–&–4–& |
D–X–D–U–X–U–D–U | D–X–D–U–X–U–D–U |
Example 4:
Hitting on 1&-&-&4&
1–&–2–&–3–&–4–& | 1–&–2–&–3–&–4–& |
D–U–X–U–X–U–D–U | D–U–X–U–X–U–D–U |

All these strumming patterns are OPEN PATTERNS where you can let EACH OF YOUR BANG to RING…There are quite a few complicated ones as well, some of which require you to MUTE
the strings after you BANG on it ONCE. Some which require you to HIT the strings hard with your right hand, but completely MUTED by your LEFT hand.
For example, the BOSSANOVA pattern, if you remember George Michael’s Faith, or Allah Ke Bandhe the pattern doesn’t let the strings RING. Nazre Milana from Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na is another example of muted strumming. Basically the sound shouldn’t be CHANNNNGGGGGG it should rather be CHANK!

More patterns
^ – Down Stroke
v – Up Stroke
Simple Duple (2/4) – 2 beats to a bar.
Simple Triple (3/4) – 3 beats to a bar.
Simple Quadraple (4/4) – 4 beats to a bar.
The comma (,) is used here to differentiate between the separate beats contained in the bar of the pattern.

Like a full grown woman might
But when you're gone I grow colder,
Come to me again in the cold, cold night

I see you walking by my front door
I hear the creaking of the kitchen floor

I'm going to love you, anyway
Come to me againin the cold, cold night

So don't fight it any longer
Come to me again, in the cold, cold night

Stairway to heaven (Chords and lyrics)

Note: Part1, part2 etc denotes, what is mentioned in part by part guitar tab of stairway to heaven.

Intro:Am   G#+   C   D   Fmaj7   G   Am(Part1), Part2

(Part1)          Am   G#+   C   D
There's a    lady who's    sure all that    glitters is    gold
    Fmaj7   G   Am
and she's    buying a stairway to    hea   ven
                   Am   G#+   C   D
When she    gets there she    knows if the    stores are all    closed
    Fmaj7   G   Am
with a    word she can get what she    came    for
(Part2)   C   D   Fmaj7   Am   C   G   D
    Oh_   __    oh____    and she's    buying a    stairway to    heaven
    C   D   Fmaj7   Am
There's a    sign on the    wall but she    wants to be    sure
    C   D   Fmaj7
'cause you    know sometimes    words have two    meanings

    Am   G#+   C   D
In a    tree by the    brook there's a    songbird who    sings
    Fmaj7   G   Am
Sometimes    all of her thoughts are    mis   given

(Double time picking)   Am   G#+   C   D   Fmaj7   G   Am
(Part3)     G/B   Am7   Dsus4   D   Am7   Em   D   C   D
                                          Oh___ it makes me    wonder
    Am7   Dsus4   D   Am7   Em   D   C   D
    Oh___             it     makes me wonder
(Part4)
    C   G   Am
There's a    feeling I    get when I    look to the west
    C   G   F   Am
and my    spirit is    crying for    lea   ving
    C   G   Am
In my    thoughts I have    seen rings of    smoke through the trees
    C   G   F   Am
and the    voices of    those who stand    loo   king
(Part3) Am7   Dsus4   D   Am7   Em   D   C   D
                 Oh___    it makes me wonder
    Am7   Dsus4   D   Am7   Em   D   C   D
    Oh___   it    really makes me wonder
(Part4)
And it's whispered that soon if we all call the tune
then the piper will lead us to reason
And the new day will dawn for those who stand long
and the forest will echo with laughter
(Part3)(Part4)
If theres a bristle in your hedgerow dont be alarmed now
it's just a spring clean for the May queen
Yes there are two paths you can go by but in the long run
there's still time to change the road you're on
(Part3)(Part4)
Your head is humming and it wont go in case you dont know
the pipers calling you to join him
Dear lady can you hear the wind blow and did you know
your stairway lies on the whispering wind

    D   Dsus2   D   Dsus4   D   Dsus2   D   Dsus4   C   Cadd9   C   Cadd9   C

For the solo and the remaining lyrics use a Am G F G barre chord sequence

Solo

And as we wind on down the road
Our shadows taller than our soul
There walks the lady we all know
Who shines white light and wants to know
how everything still turns to gold
And if you listen very hard
the time will come to you at last
When all are one and one is all
To be a rock and not to roll

    Fmaj7   G   Am
And she's    buying a stairway    to    heaven

are there things that concern you more than your time

and what about those shoes you're in today
they'll do no good on the bridges you've burnt along the way, oh
Verse(but with chorus chords!!) then Chorus (finish on E)
you were willing to sell anything gone with your hurt
leave your footprints we'll shame them with our words,
gone people all careless and consumed, gone

Verse 1
There’s traffic in the sky and it doesn’t seem to be getting much better
There’s kids playing games on the pavement
Drawing waves on the pavement Mmm hmm
Shadows of the planes on the pavement Mmm hmm
It’s enough to make me cry
But that don’t seem like it will make it feel better
Maybe it’s a dream and if I scream, it will burst at the seams
Whole place would fall into pieces
Chorus
(fill) A G# G A
And then they’d say Well how could we have known
(A) D Bm G
I’ll tell them it’s not so hard to tell Nah Nah Nah
(G) A D
You keep adding stones Soon the water will
(D) Bm G A (play octave B to D)
Be lost in the well Mmmm mmmmm
Verse 2 (same as above)
And puzzle pieces in the ground, No one ever seems to be digging
Instead they’re looking up towards the heavens
With their eyes on the heavens, Mmm hmmm
The shadows on the way to the heavens, Mmm hmm
It’s enough to make me cry
That don’t seem like it will make it feel better
The answers could be found, We could learn from digging down
But no one ever seems to be digging
Chorus (diff lyric - Instead they’ll say)
Verse 3
And words of wisdom all around, But no one ever seems to listen
They’re talking about the plans on the paper,
Building up from the pavement, Mmm hmm
The shadows from the scrapers on the pavement, Mmm hmm
It’s enough to make me sigh
But that don’t seem like it will make it feel better
The words are all around, But the words are only sounds
And no one ever seems to listen
Chorus (end on D)

Octaves

An octave is an interval between (and including) two notes, one having twice or half the frequency vibration of the other. In simple terms this means that octaves are the same notes, but higher or lower.
The two notes that make up an octave are the same note (ie, G and G) but one will be higher or lower than the other. You can hear an octave by playing an open string and then playing the same string at the 12th fret. That is an octave, because the notes in an octave are 12 semitones (frets) apart. One complete lap of the Note Circle.
Because of this, you can use octaves to find the notes on the middle strings of the guitar (the most difficult to remember for everyone). As long as you know the notes on the bottom two strings (which you will need to to know your Power Chords and Barre Chords) then you can work out all the rest.
For example, to find a note on the 3rd or 4th string, simply put your third finger on the note you want to know and put your first finger in the relative position shown by the diagrams above (in this case two frets back and two strings over). The note under your first finger will be on the 5th or 6th string and you should know the note name!
To get a note on the 2nd string you have to use the third shape shown and put your first finger on the note you want to know and stretch out your third finger to the 5th string note that you know.
The first and 6th strings have the same notes all the way up, so they are pretty easy.
Simple or what?
And now you can find any note on the fingerboard just by knowing the notes on the bottom two strings (if you don't know them by now - get busy - you need to know those notes for just about everything: barre chords, scale shapes etc.)
