Black Crowes "Tornado" 
This is cool country style acoustic song off thier "lost crowes" album
the song is pretty simple has 3 basic movements that repeat twice
pretty sure the lyrics are right easy to follow if you have a copy of the song.

 SGit down by the window and watch the toCrnado
 Heard you saw some friends of mine last winter
 Wait for the shGeriff to brE/Ging some dirty water Emby
 then agian, i heard you disappeared into either
 hGelp yourself out to some of my dCisaster
 I dont laugh and you smile because i'm tired
 its moving faGster than the E/Glast time i was on Emspeed
 I'm feeling wired so weary and oh so old
 dont you know what i Amean?
 am i being too bold?
 cause its ways and mDeans and your ways are mCean by definiGtion
 bold enough to ask you if you really love me
 I could fiDll this book up wCith this boy's ambGition
 in my shadow on yes and in my breeze
 bCmut I dont audition, no thats tDrue
 but just one more thing, please let me say, 
 I could never aCmct for youD  
 is for yout to stay away from me
