                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[Just for reference, House of the Rising Sun, The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald and A Hard Rain's Gonna Fall are all 6/8, or 3/4 depending on the chords in the measure, among a whole lot of other songs.  A 6/8 pattern is most easily described as a "waltz" pattern... <B>1</B> 23 <B>1</B> 23.  The <B>1</B> beat gets the accent, with whatever pattern of down/up strokes you desire.  It could be <B>d</B> ud <B>d</B> ud or <B>d</B> dd <B>d</B> dd, etc.]]></content:encoded>

                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[I was listening to "Sometimes It Be That Way" by Jewel. The chords are simple, but I can't make out the strumming pattern she's using. I understand the importance of not being obsessed with one pattern, but I can't figure out anything that's even close. It sounds like it's in 6/8, and the intro sounds slightly different from the rest of the song. Somehow everything I try sounds hopelessly robotic. Can anyone please offer me some insight into what she's doing?<br> <br>Here are the chords: <a href="http://www.guitaretab.com/j/jewel/9342.html">http://www.guitaretab.com/j/jewel/9342.html</a><br> <br>Thanks a million!]]></content:encoded>
