MY OWN WORST ENEMY (CHORDS) - Lit Tuning: Standard If you want to play and sing this song on acoustic, this is what I would suggest. I strum as follows during the verses. This is just a guideline. You'll want to change strumming pattern for the chorus. Work with timing by listening to song and playing what's comfortable for you.

AI didn't mean to cBall you that Outro: Verse strum pattern
E - B - A x4 (hold last note. Feel free to finish off with one more E) This is really a simple song as far as the music goes. Timing the strumming and singing simultaneously is the hardest part to get the hang of. Have fun with this one! -Blake
