Not sure which voicing combinations they use, mix to taste i guess.
 
In terms of strumming pattern sixteenth notes with emphasis on 2 and 4 maybe, sounds close enough, if your
ear tells you differently do that. Alternate stroke patterns down and up, don't slam down strokes for each 
beat.

While thinking about the melody/lyrics matching up with the chords, I have capitalized the words i believe 
come
with the new chord and placed them directly under the Chord letter. Listen to the song to get the exact rhythm
of the melody.
