Picking pattern is simple just listen to the way he plays it from this performance -

The chord he plays for Bb and C is missing the ring finger but he doesn't pick it when playing (it will sound 
off if you do). Enjoy!

Dm7
Things were all good yesterday
                                   Bb
And then the devil took your memory

                                 C
And if you fell to your death today
                                 Dm7
I hope that heaven is your resting place

I heard the doctors put your chest in pain
                    F                       Bb
But then that could've been the medicine

And now you're lying in the bed again
                  C
Either way I'll cry with the rest of them


Bb         Am7                Dm7
And my father told me, son
        F                                 C
It's not his fault he doesn't know your face
Bb        Am7               Dm7
And you're not the only one
F                               C
Although my grandma used to say

That he used to sing.

Dm7                             Bb                      Gm
Darling, hold me in your arms the way you did last night
                         C
And we'll lie in sight for a little while, he wrote
Dm7                            Bb                   Gm
I could look into your eyes until the sun comes up
                        C
And we're wrapped in light, in life, in love
Dm7                             Bb                  Gm
Put your open lips on mine and slowly let them shut
Dm7                    Bb                          Gm
For they're designed to be together, oh
Dm7                             Bb                      Gm
With your body next to mine our hearts will beat as one
                C                  Dm7
And we're set alight, we're afire love


                              Dm7
Things were all good yesterday
                                      Bb
But then the devil took your breath away
                                 C
And now we're left here in the pain

Black suit, black tie, standing in the rain

Dm7
And now my family is one again
                             F                     Bb
Stapled together with the strangers and a friend

Came to my mind, I should paint it with a pen
C
Six years old, I remember when

Bb         Am7                Dm7
And my father told me, son
        F                                 C
It's not his fault he doesn't know your face
Bb        Am7               Dm7
And you're not the only one
F                               C
Although my grandma used to say

Dm7                             Bb                      Gm
Darling, hold me in your arms the way you did last night
                         C
And we'll lie in sight for a little while, he wrote
Dm7                            Bb                   Gm
I could look into your eyes until the sun comes up
                        C
And we're wrapped in light, in life, in love
Dm7                             Bb                  Gm
Put your open lips on mine and slowly let them shut
Dm7                    Bb                          Gm
For they're designed to be together, oh
Dm7                             Bb                      Gm
With your body next to mine our hearts will beat as one
                C                  Dm7
And we're set alight, we're afire love

Dm7                                                 Bb                       C
And my father and all of my family rise from their seats to sing hallelujah
