Here's a set of alternative chord patterns that I found a little easier
to play.
The chords are played in order, first playing the descending notes (from
lowest string to highest string), then playing the reverse or ascending
notes. Also, since the picking pattern is straightforward, it's a good
piece to practice (or start learning) to fingerpick.
The C7 is tough to position as I've diagramed it. If it's easier, you
can play the notes as follows: G (3rd string open), Bb (3rd string 3rd
position), C (2nd string 1st position), E (1st string open position).
