and pressing it on the big E string 
on the second fret.


Finger-Picking:
There are two basic patterns of 
finger-picking in this song, and 
I'll clarify which one
is used at different points in the 
song.
The first pattern goes like this 
(counts for one beat of the song):
E|-------------------|      
B|-------x-----------|      
G|---------------x---| ("x" 
D|----------x--------|      
A|---x(bas| e note)----|    
E|-------------------|      
E|                                    
B|                                    
G|represents the string being picked) 
D|                                    
A|                                    
E|                                    

Notice the first string is labeled 
the "base note", this means that the
 base note of
whichever chord you're picking 
should be played first. So if you 
were picking a G chord,
you would pick the E string first, 
not the A string (although it will 
mainly be the A
string in this song because of the 
chord progression).

The second pattern is like this (an extra beat longer than the first pattern):
E|-----------------------------| 
B|------------x----------------| 
G|------x-----------x-----x----| 
D|---------------------x-------| 
A|-----------------------------| 
E|---x-----x-----x-------------| 

Once again, the first "x" represents
 the base note of the chord, so 
depending on the
chord being picked it will either be
 on the E string or A string.

picked with the second 
finger-picking style when an 
asterisk is next to it (Example:
F*). If there is no asterisk, then 
the picking is in the first pattern.
