Capo 3rd fret
Chords used:
C: X32010
Em: 022000
F: 133210
G: 320010
Am: X02210
The picking pattern is relatively simple for the most part. There are a couple of minor variations
on the chords used. For example sometimes the intro and going into the verse uses a variation
on the G:
 
 e|----------------------------3---|
 B|-------1----------1-------------|
 G|-----0----0-------0---0---0-----|
 D|---2--------0p2---0-----0-------|
 A|--------------------------------|
 G|-3--------------3---------------|

Sometimes notes are added or taken out, but if you stick to the chord shapes you can't really go wrong. For the verse in general:
[C] [Em] [F] [G]  
 
 e|---------------------------------------------------------------|
 B|-------1-------------0--------------1----------------1---------|
 G|-----0--0--0------0----0--0------2----2---2------0-----0---0---|
 D|----2-2---2-----2--2-----2-----3---3----3------0---0-----0-----|
 A|--3------------------------------------------------------------|
 E|--------------0--------------1---------------3-----------------|

[Am] [F] [C] [Am] [G] [F]  
 
 e|----------------------------------------------------------------3-|
 B|-------1--------------1------------1--------1-------1-------2-----|
 G|-----2---2--2------2----2---2--------0--------2-------0-------3---|

[C]Well I live in the canyon where the o[Em]ld coyotes howl
They [F]come down from the mountains and the d[G]ogs begin to growl

When the mo[C]rning sun is risi[Am]ng I will bu[G]ry who is left[F]
