No, you cant just use an equal strum pattern for something like that. Best suggestion I have is listen to the song and play along with it til you make the chord changes at the proper places.

Think 'Lovin' Spoonful' for the song with the line 'And anyone that unpacks his guitar can play twice as better than i will' in the verse.
