----------------------****--------------------------------


The picking sequence for the opening bar is as follows, repeated - slide up 2 frets, D string, to get base run sequence.  The remainder uses the same style picking out the base runs (which you can get from the record) using the chords shown.

Em
e|-------------------------|
B|-----0---0-------0---0---|
G|----0---0---0---0---0--0-|
D|---- -----2---4---2------|
A|----- 2---------------2--|
E|--0----------------------|
    |   |   |   |   |   |

Between verses, play base on D string from fret 2 to 4 to 2 to 4 to 5 to 4 to 5 then to G string 4th fret, then move to B7 shape before returning to the Em sequence.
Play Fmaj7 using standard F-shape with open top E.
