Topic: If you could read my mind - Lightfoot (picking)

Hey chaps.

Now that I've learned blackbird, I want to move on to my next picking challenge, and I've settled on this great great song.

I've found some chord tab's for it, and I've tried a range of appegios to these chords, but it doesn't quite sound right.

Does anyone know a good picking pattern to work to, I've listened to the song a terrific amount, but I just can't get it.

Thanks.
