Probably better than the other version with one chord.

Strumming Pattern: ^^ (strum up twice per chord)

s in brackets are optional. In case you don't play them strum the  six times 
and then  twice. If you are one of those who believe that sounds better if 
played in  then the chords are --> and -->.
