The strumming patterns below are written using standard rhythmic notation. While I can't go into detail
about understanding rhythms or how to read the notation, all of the down & up hand motions for the
strums are indicated using these symbols.

= the symbol used to indicate a chord should be strummed up

If you see a down or up indication in parentheses ( ) you will miss the strings instead of strumming them.
