Chorus 
Time signature switches in the middle from 4/4 to 3/4, but it's pretty intuitive.

The strumming patterns are a little odd and the time signature change might throw you  
off, count like this: 

1-2-3-4,1-2-3-4,1-2-3-4,1-2 

You can other just do normal strumming or you can try to copy the mandolin's more  
organic pattern. Listen to the actual track to get it.
