The first tab is in red because I want to explain it. I tabbed it out because that's how I play it, with the slides and the tiny chord alterations, but I tried playing it with the chords only, and it works. But if you want it to sound like the real song in NEWS, then I recommend you to do the tabbed out one ^^ Also, Throughout the Verse 1 and verse 2 (if you decide to use the altered notes) it's all strummed out. :)
The strumming pattern btw is ↓↓↑↑↓↑↑↓↓↑ :)
