first, make sure your guitar is in tune. What i used to do with strumming chords to a song is do a single strum when there is a chord change..then, slowly start improvising rhythmically..im not sure about the song but from how i see you posted, the distance between chords are pretty close so its probably pretty fast..

Ps. from my experiece, your chords might be wrongly placed..listen to the song and try and sense where there is a change of chords and change there

Arrrr... David Tao, my favourite song!!! Weee.... laugh.gif

The best bet is to listen to song and try to pick out where the chords fall into. When I get the time I'ill try to play it with your chords and see how it sounds. smile.gif

the fastest way is to listen then figure the pattern...or u could just improvise and create a whole new strumming pattern which also can create feel for the song...

that's what i did most of the time...simply find a pattern that sounded nice...

Timing has to be exact as well and as mentioned above, the chord change may not be placed at the right areas. It would be best if you could tune up your guitar, then play in the same key as the song and then listen to where the chord changes.

PIMA - P is the thumb.
and strumming with the thumb is awkward.

use a soft pick.

Personally, i think it sounds better when you strum with a soft pick compared to your nail.
