Secondhand Serenade - A Twist In My Story

note : these are the actual chords to twist in my story taken directly off the song .
key and everything .

for the B – G#m – F# – E progression the B chord goes through two cycles of the strumming and
E chord is held at the end .

for the G#m – F# – E progression , only the E is held .

also , the heart beat part is hard to explain but the chords stop after they are strummed
the second line where you
continue to strum softly while growing in intensity .

strumming : for the most part follows A

dooooown – up – down – up – doooooown – up – down – up

pattern with the long downs held
