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-----------------|

Verse:
[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
And they [Am]meet up in the darkness, and they f[F]ight until the death
When the mo[C]rning sun is risi[Am]ng I will bu[G]ry who is left[F]
Chorus
[G] [Am] [F] [C]

Then play the intro again and back to the verse.
Thats it throughout. Comments welcome.
