Your 1st and 4th fingers will remain on the 2nd and 1st strings for the majority of the song. 

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Picking the verses : Pick the bass note of each chord (except on Csus2 you must pick the open D not C),
                     then the 2nd string, then the 1st string, then the 2nd string again. 
                     Do this pattern twice on each Fadd9 chord.
