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" represents the string being picked)
D|----------x--------|
A|---x(bas| e note)----|
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.
NOW FOR THE ACTUAL SONG. The chords are posted in timing with the lyrics, and a chord is
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.

We don't have to fear the morning, Angeline.

^^^Repeat this last part 4 times and end with a strummed C chord.
