I fell in love with this song after playing Telltale's The Walking Dead Game Season Two.
Perfect soundtrack for Clementine.
Capo second fret
His fingerpicking style is mainly focused on the A-D-G-B strings for most of the song with him adding the 
high E a few times throughout the song on the C chords. On E minor C sections the high e 
embellishment happens on the last chord of the verse.
That Em9 chord is just Cmaj7 slid up a whole step on the neck, no changes to the hand position.
