The Weary Kind Picking Pattern chords

Hey everyone, this is John again from GuitarHeresy.blogspot.com. I want to show you today how to play the song
The Weary Kind.
I did a cover of this last week.
It was sort of a cover slash lesson, but I got a lot of people
emailing me and saying that they wanted
to know more about the picking pattern.
So I've included that now you know how to do it.
Hopefully
you're on the right track now.
[D] [A]
[Bm]
[G] [D]
[E] [A]
[D] [G] [D]
That's how the pattern goes.
[E] You've got your thumb up here [A] playing the lower notes,
[D]
the bass note for the D is the D string, and that's the pattern.
I'm using my thumb for the bass, and then I'm coming down with my thumb playing the next string.
And I'm [Dm] playing with my
second
[E] finger.
I'm coming [D] up on the highest string, my E string.
Then my B string I'm using my
first finger.
So we got,
kind of sounds like a doorbell.
Then I just [G] use my thumb again for [A] that G string, [D]
and then my first finger again for the B.
[N] That's the pattern.
[D]
And I'm doing the same thing [Ab] with pretty much everything.
I then [Am] switch to an A chord.
I'm doing the same thing, same strings.
[A]
B minor.
[Bm]
The only thing that changes [G] a little bit is the G.
For my bass I use the E string playing the G note, but other than that everything's the same.
[D]
So as you switch the chords just keep that that same pattern going.
For [E] the chorus, I mean, I [Bm] think you're pretty much doing the same thing.
I mean you could either strum the chorus to give it, you know, some emphasis.
This [D] ain't no place that [A] we're kind.
That might be one way to do it.
[E] But I mean pretty [Bm] much you're just
[G] doing the same [D] [F]
thing the whole way [E] through.
So that's how you play the pattern for the weary kind.
