It's the finger-picking that's tricky, but not too hard once you
do it several times. Here's the tab:

(Fingering)
Probably the easiest way to master this is to first, get the
chords down with the left hand.
Then, don't even look at the tab. Just look at the fingering
line under the TAB, with your right-hand fingers on the following
strings:
0 = Thumb, A-string
1- = 1st-finger, D-string
1+ = 1st-finger, G-string
2 = 2nd-finger, B-string
3 = 3rd-finger, E-string
These 2 chords repeat twice, then repeat 4 more times with the words,
then it ends on this chord, strumming slowly with the right-thumb:
A*

WORDS: (not completely accurate.)
F* G*
More than what I feel...
F* G*
Touchin' what is real...
F* G*
All our thoughts are reelin' round...
F* G*
Carolina's feelin' down...
A*
To-day.
- (From here, it goes to the 'Amy' intro and song.) -
The last chorus of 'Amy' leads into the 2nd part of 'Fallin..'
as follows:
A G D
Amy, What you wanna do?
A G D
I think I could stay with you, for a
Bm E
while, maybe longer if I do... I keep
(shift into melodious finger-picking, with
occasional suspended-2nd's on the A & D chords...)
A G D
Fallin in and out of love with you
A G D
Fallin in and out of love with you
A G D
Don't know what I'm gonna do I keep
A D F* G* A***
Fallin in and out of love with you . . .
(One last easy chord:)
