This is very closely based on jjchristfan's version. There were just a few parts that I
felt were slightly off, so I made this version. Honestly, the finger picking pattern to
this is quite simple to figure out by listening and playing these chords. Mainly
thumbing the bass note of the chord, index finger on the D string, and ring finger hitting the B
string (sorry I can't really explain the pattern in words here, check out a live version
or, again, its not too hard to mess with and nail down).
Let me know if you think it should sound different and any part and I'll look into
making the proper adjustments!
