This is a beautiful song by the Backstreet Boys... I tried to figure out the chords... Here it is
and for the strumming pattern.., listen to the song carefully, towards the end
(when Brian Littrel sings "If you knew what I knew my baby, you would never have
said what you said..") you can hear the clear strumming. That is the exact
strumming for the whole song. Enjoy
Intro: Am G Am G Am G F
Oh yeah

The only tears I cry

Like a lost soul
