Strum once every chord, letting it ring and respecting the silence between
each sequence. The transitions (C-D, D-Bm, Bm-C) should be quick...
Just like the sound.
I'll mark the spots in the lyrics where they should go, but bear in mind
it's far easier to "grasp" the pattern. The lyrics are sung with different
speeds so the distance between each chord in different phrases might
confuse you. So basically, I recommend you get your rhythm in sync with
the piano from the song and you will not need to read these chords ever again.
There are some interlude parts that do not respect the pattern, but the
chords never change.
Without further ado,
"Walking In Your Footsteps"
