If you're a beginner and you think I lied about it being easy, this was the 2nd song I learned.
Everyone says it's capo 1 but it's not, there is no capo.
For the riff you just pick the A, D, G strings while on the A you use the 
first finger to move on to 3, 5, 2, 3 in a pattern.
Then the chords are easy,

[Verse 1]
In onCly a moGment tG/Bruth was sG/Ceen,
G/CReveaDled this mG/BysteryG/C,
The cG/Crown that shDowed no Emdignity, he wDore,
And the kCing was plEmaced,
for Dall the world to show disgrace,
but oCnly beauty fEmlowed, from this pDlace
[Chorus]
EmWould you take the pClace of this mGanD/F#  
EmWould you take the Cnails from his hGandsD/F#  
EmWould you take the pClace of this mGanD/F#  
EmWould you take the Cnails from his hGandsD/F#  
[Verse 2]
He hCeld the weDight of iG/BmpuritG/Cy,
the faDther wG/Bould not G/Csee,
the reasons had fiDnally cEmome to be to sDhow,
the dCepth of his gEmrace,
Dflowed with every sin erased,
he kCnew that tEmhis is why he caDme,
[Chorus]
EmWould you take the pClace of this mGanD/F#  
EmWould you take the Cnails from his hGandsD/F#  
EmWould you take the pClace of this mGanD/F#  
EmWould you take the Cnails from his hGandsD/F#  
[Bridge]
Cadd9and we just don't knAsus4ow,
Cadd9the blood and water flAsus4owed,
Cadd9and in it all he shoAsus4wed,
just how much he cared,
[Riff]
And the vCiel was tEmorn
so Dwe could have this open door
and Call these things have Emfinally been compDlete
[Chorus]
EmWould you take the pClace of this mGanD/F#  
EmWould you take the Cnails from his hGandsD/F#  
EmWould you take the pClace of this mGanD/F#  
EmWould you take the Cnails from his hGandsD/F#
