Artist: The Wilderness of Manitoba
Song: November
Album: When You Left The Fire (2010)
Based on lemurjim's chords I have attempted to figure out the picking
pattern for this wistful Simon and Garfunklesque song. The pattern below
may not be 100% correct and, as usual with such folky tunes, there are
variations to be heard within the song, but this seems to get the general
feel right. I am least confident about the pattern on the G chord, since it
is hard to hear the bass notes in the recording.
In this tab, the spacing of notes does represent the timing and ----
represents one beat in the bar. I have indicated how I play it with
downstrokes and upstrokes for the Dm chord and the pattern is the same for
all the other chords
Let ring throughout

As a variation, I sometimes play the top three strings on the second beat of
the first bar of each chord. This is not done in the recording, but it
beefs things up a little when you are singing it alone without the
harmonies. For example:
Dme|----1---------1-|----------------|B|----3-----------|------3---------|G|----2-------2---|----2-------2---|D|0---------0-----|--0-------0---0-|A|----------------|----------------|E|----------------|----------------|
