This is how Chris Cornell played Temple of The Dog's All Night Thing on an acoustic guitar 
during his Songbook tours. The arrangement differs slightly from how they had played it on piano
in the studio version.

If you would like to learn how to play it on piano, I also made a lesson for that:

Also, in the VERSE and CHORUS in the acoustic version, there will be the occasional D5 or Dsus4, 
moving from the D and a switch from E to E7. Played randomly.
