I've done this from a demo i downloaded from AlexMaxBand.com- its the first from his new album i think.
Its really simple but sounds great on the acoustic.
If you want to play in regular E tuning play it in the key of B.
Tuning - Eb Ab Db Gb Bb Eb
C- x32010

F- x3321x
Im not sure what these chords are called so Im just putting a star next to the chord theyre derived from:
