Finally, an acoustic song! of course, that's excluding Disarm...
This song is actually pretty easy, if you disregard the violin & cello..

Main riff:
|--repeat 3x----|
----------------|--------0---------0----------
--0-0--0-0-0-0--|--0-----0---------0----------

--1/3--3-3/7-7--|--5--8--8---8--8--8---8--8---

play this main acoustic riff throughout most of the song, or play the chords
marked in the lyrics....
