Just heard the acoustic version of Audioslaveīs Wide awake, and decided to transcribe 
here you go:

Acoustic version: performed and written by Chris Cornell,

written after the Hurricane Katrina disaster,

the most political song by Audioslave, so far...

Tuning: ebgdaD

Tabbed by: Christopher Carlsson

Intro:      Dm   D12  D10

e            1    0   0
b            3    3   3
g            2    2   2
d            0    0   0
a            0    0   0
D            0    3   2


Verse1

Dm                             D12      Dm
You can a look a hurricane right in the eye
                    D12     Dm
1200 people dead or left to die
Dm                       Bb              Dm
Follow the leaders, we're in an eye for an eye we'll all be blind
                         Bb                Dm        A
Death for murder and this I'm sure in this uncertain time

Chorus

Dm                              Fmaj7
So come pull the sheet over my eyes
               Bb
So I can sleep tonight
Dm            C
Despite what I've seen today
Dm                   Fmaj7                Bb
I find you guilty of a crime, of sleeping at a time
Dm                      C
When you should have been wide awake

Interlude=intro


Verse2

Dm                    D12              Dm
Down on the road the world is floating by
Dm                      D12       Dm
The poor and undefended left behind
                                         Bb
While you're somewhere trading lives for oil
 Dm                         A
As if the whole world were blind

Chorus

Dm                             Fmaj7
So come pull the sheet over my eyes
               Bb
So I can sleep tonight
Dm             C
Despite what I've seen today
Dm                     Fmaj7                Bb
I find you guilty of a crime of sleeping at a time
Dm                         C
When you should have been wide awake

Bb           A          Dm              Cadd9
I found you guilty of a crime, all this I know(?)

Dm                        C
Come pull the sheet over my eyes
               Bb
So I can sleep tonight
Dm            C
Despite what I've seen today
Dm                       Fmaj7                Bb
I find you guilty of the crime of sleeping at a time
Dm                        C
When you should have been wide awake
Dm          C           Bb          C             Dm
Wide awake! Wide awake! Wide awake! Wide awake!
