Verse 1 should be played with alternating finger picking the on A, D and G strings.
Basically, two downs on the A and D, an up on the G and then alternate D, A, D.
And just repeat until first chorus then switch to strums.
Spontaneous should be played with the same picking as verse 1 but
throw in the B string in place of the G every other beat. Slowly build into strums.
