Just Another Day -Good Old War
Standard Tuning (EADGBe)
Capo 5th fret
The strumming pattern is mainly a downstroke across all the strings and
then a quick down up across the top three strings. It keeps this pattern
throughout the intro and verse

The open in () can be played at twelve as well
It sounds better there, but it's much easier to play it open
The verse keeps the same patter as the intro, so I'll just write the
chords down with the number of beats you keep it above
