here's note for both intermediate And beginning players:

you do not have to pick all the notes to get this flowing. you can
strum this whole and finger just notes like this:

-----------------------------------------------
-0h1-0----------0--0h1--0-------0-------0-0----
-0---0-------0h2---0----0-------0---0h2---0--0-
-0---0-------0-----0----0-------0---0-----0----
-0---0-------0-----0----0-------0---0-----0----
-----------------------------------------------.
anything you see arpeggiated can be played as a chord,
which is what it is in the first place.

this is why i love open G tuning.

Al is definately playing this in open G tuning.

you can strum and fingerpick at the same time with all those drone
open strings complimenting your chordal voicings,making it sound much
fuller and pretty much sounding like two guitars.

there you have it.
