Confused on time signature

Looking for more experienced players to help me figure something out. I have been taking Justin’s strum course and when I play this song – called an absoulte beginner song on Ultimate guitar – it feels like it is in 6/8 time, as I accent the 1 and 4.

Am I way off course?

I know the player adds some hammer on and strum dynamics, and wonder if that is confusing me.

The music starts at one minute into the video.

Thank you, community.

Hey Tom,

Yep, thats what I’m hearing… 6/8.
ie. One-and-a, TWO-and-a…

Great course too…will serve you very well…
