Great song by Brett Dennen that's pretty easy to play. The whole song is
picked
with a basic pattern shown below with E as an example.
If you want to mix it up a little bit, you can walk up to E from the A
at the end of the intro and bridges with
Go straight back in to picking here

Intro

E - - - -
A - C#m - A - C#m -
A - C#m - A - E
[E] When I heard the [A]news, my heart fell on the [E]floor
I was on a [B]plane, on my way to [C#m]Baltimore
[A]In these troubled [E]times it’s hard [B]enough as [E]is
My [A]soul has known a better life than [B]this
I wondered how so [A]many could be in so much [E]pain
While [B]others don’t seem to feel a [C#m]thing
And [A]then I curse my [E]whiteness and I [B]get so damn [E]depressed
In a [A]world of suffering why [B]should I be so blessed

Bridge

A - C#m - x3
A - E -
[E]I heard about a [A]woman who lives in [E]Colorado
She built a [B]monument of sorrow behind her garage[C#m] door
[A]Where every day [E]she prays for [B]all whom are [E]born
[A]And all who souls are passed [B]on
Sometimes my[A] trouble gets so [E]thick
I can’t[B] see how I’m gonna get [C#m]through it
[A]But then I would rather [E]be [B]stuck up in a [E]tree
[A]Then be tied to [B]it

Bridge

A - E -
[E]I don’t feel [A]comfortable with the way that my clothes [E]fit
I [B]can’t get used to my body’s [C#m]limits
[A]I got some fancy [E]shoes to try and[B] kick away these [E]blues
They[A] cost a lot of money but [B]they aren’t worth a thing
I want to free my [A]feet from the broken glass and [E]concrete
I need[B] to get out of this [C#m]city
[A]Lay upon the [E]ground stare a [B]hole in the sky[E]
[A]Wondering where I go when I [B]die
When I die[A]
