Here's one to have a go at. You don't have to play it note for note as you can simplify the flatpicking runs and cross picking. Then, over time (years rather than months) , embellish your performance as you get more building blocks in place.
Basically, this is a good approach to all this Carter style playing - start learning the song with a simple flag picked accompaniment and then add stuff over the years to your arrangement.
I play this style of flatpick song accompaniment for pretty much all the songs I sing. Except when I'm Travis picking.
