Trying to get my repertoire up to 3 songs, and I'm tackling Townes Van Zandt's "Pancho and Lefty." (Because I love the song, and as far as I can puzzle out, the chords are pretty easy, but sound a lot more complex than they are.) After about a week of completely useless noodling on the rhythm front, I found that a one-bar strum pattern of D-DU-U-D was suddenly working for me. Really only have to break that pattern for the Am-C-G three-strum accent on the "go so long" part of the refrain.
Anyway, I'm just wondering if anyone else plays that song and maybe has an even better way of strumming the chords.
