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

play this main acoustic riff throughout most of the song, or play the chords
marked in the lyrics....
[riff]
Feel it break your bones mr. jones
Taste me as I bleed, taste my need
G Am(i) Em(i)
Spaceboy, I've missed you, spinning round my head
C(i) G D Em
Anyway you choose me, I break instead
[riff]
Watch me, death defy, defile my life
I don't need, if I don't care

Please I want to go home..I want to go home..
I want to go home, I want to go home
Cause when a lover aches, that's when a lover breaks
I want to go home, I want to go home...
Now just play the following riff twice for the instrumental:
