These Chords can be strummed instead of plucked if the occasion calls for it, just use the same chords
and play them over the lyrics.
eg.
AAh...Asus4...... A5 Asus4
AAh...Asus4...... A5 Asus4
EAh...Esus4...... E5 Esus4
EAh...Esus4...... E5 Esus4

This pattern repeats, later on he mixes it up but he uses the same notes, listen to the song for those
sections, they are easy enough to figure out once you get the song down.
Remember this can be played both by picking and strumming depending on how comfortable you are with
fingerpicking, if you just want to play the chords there's absolutely nothing wrong with that.
