 D-0--------0-------|-0h2--------0----|  That is the intro / verse that is
 G-0----------------|------------0----|    used through the whole song
   Hold it  near     as it were your own

Now the chorus is kinda simple.  What I do ( if you want go ahead and make up your own 
is this.

 This is the picking pattern I use during the chorus

|--0-----0-----0--|
|----0-----0-----0|            The chords in the chorus are.
|-----------------|
|0-----0-----0----|    Am              D              G             C
|-----------------|  Ripple in still water when there is no pebble tossed

                   Am          D
                   no wind to blow.     (then back to the verse above)
