Sail them home with Acquiesce on a ship of hope today
        F/A                   G/A
And as they land upon the shore
D                      F
Tell them not to fear no more
G                                         E7

Repeat intro + add   ?   Am7         ?  on end with that strummy thing he does.

Now all you need is that brass and strings section.

In the intro it does sound better if you don't hit the top string, thanks for that. You can also substitute the Am7 for an Am. The rest though is spot on.
