"Anniversary Song" by Eva Cassidy Guitar Picking Pattern

by India
(London)

I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask, but I've googled it a million times but got no answer. My mom absolutely loves Eva Cassidy and I've been meaning to play "Anniversary Song" for her birthday next month. I can't find the picking pattern anywhere online but it sounds quite simple. Do you think that you could help me out with that one? I'm unfortunately not good enough to play it by ear just yet.

Here's the chords:
