He changes how he plays the F.  While picking he plays all the 
strings open except the bass note.  While strumming (chorus)
he adds the others too (I think) but it's definitely not a full
F, and these sound nice.  Sounds like an Iron & Wine F to me.

For finger picking technique, it's easy, hit the bass note, 
Then find your way to the high note (E string on Am and B string
nn the other three chords.  Think Jezebel...(kind of)
