Finger picking for the instrumental part is 2nd string (from top) then 3rd string then 1st and 4th strings together then back to 3rd string. Use index finger for 2nd string, middle finger for 3rd string and ring finger and thumb for 1st and 4th string.

This pattern should be done once on both G and D, then twice on Em and A7, and finally once on both C and D.
