I believe this is the picking pattern for the opening part of song.  It is repeated at end of 
verses.

[Verse #1]
 
G                     C                   G
I watch the wind blow brown leaves to the ground
                   C                  F    D7
And blow along the side-walks of this town
G                        C             G             Em
I can see the wind as it blew her hair time and time again
            C        D7         G
Oh what I'd give Lord to be the wind
 
[Verse #2]
 
            C              G
Oh what I'd give to be the wind
                         C               D7
To be free to leave this awful place I'm in
G                     C             G          Em
It's hopeless cause I haven't got a penny or a friend
            C        D7         G
Oh what I'd give Lord to be the wind
 
[Verse #3]
 
               C                G
This same wind tomorrow will be gone
                   C                F    D7
To blow across the cotton fields of home
G                        C             G           Em
It will gently touch the lovely face I long to touch again
            C        D7         G
Oh what I'd give Lord to be the wind
 
Repeat [Verse #2]
