For the verses, I play a strumming pattern of:
w w x w u x u u x w u w with w(down), u(up), and x(muted)
Verse 1:
Gmaj7 Bm7 Am7
The feeling was clear, clear as a blue sky on a sunny day
F#m7 B9
Everything was you, oo ooo
Cmaj7 Bm7 Am7
'Cause no one made me feel, the way I felt with you, oh oohh
A#9 Em7 Fmaj7
Call on me 'cause I love you
Em7 Fmaj7 Em7 Fmaj7 Emaj7
You know I do, you love me too. oo ooo oooo
For verse 2, the strumming pattern stays the same, but for the first C chord, I play:
w u w u w x w x w x (twice)
Verse 2:
Emaj7 Fmaj7 Gmaj7 Bm7 Am7
Then came a change, when I said I would soon be leavin' you
F#m7 B9

Call on me 'cause I love you
Em7 Fmaj7 Em7 Fmaj7 Emaj7

I ad-lib on rhythm for the instrumental. It's difficult to hear the guitar
over the brass and percussion anyways.
